Property Division and Divorce in Florida
There are numerous matters which must be addressed in a divorce, and one of these is property division. In Florida, equitable distribution is the means by which property and assets are divided upon the dissolution of a marriage. "Equitable" does not necessarily mean "equal" as a number of different factors will come into play as property is allocated to each spouse. Additionally, there is particularly property which may be exempt from equitable distribution, and as such it is important to work with an experienced attorney to ensure your property and interests are properly protected.
