Equitable Distribution in Troutman, North Carolina

Equitable distribution is typically defined as a division of property and can be applied to various legal situations, including a divorce. The process of equitable distribution is supervised by a judge, so spouses achieve the best possible division of property rights and obligations according to their specific situation. Depending on each unique scenario, equitable distribution may be simple, or it can be complicated and require more work on the parts of all parties involved.

It’s important to know that equitable distribution is used to provide “fair” division of property, not always “equal” division. As such, there are many different factors a judge may consider as they determine what will be an equitable split between spouses. For example, the financial situation of each individual, age and health (physical, mental and emotional), length of the marriage, standard of living, and tax consequences may all be considerations. Additionally, if children are involved, a judge will determine the best case for each child.
