Landowner’s Divorce

Each and every divorce is different and unique, so it should not surprise you to learn that land ownership can make divorce even more complicated. With the division of property, land taxes and finances and a whole host of other issues accompanying your divorce, you need a qualified divorce attorney by your side to help you make the important decisions. Our team at CashattWarren has the experience and expertise to handle these unique situations for landowners or their spouses.

One of the first issues that must be settled is whether the land is considered part of the marital assets. Many times, landowners inherit large tracts of land that have been in the family for generations before the marriage, or it may be considered an inheritance by the spouse. Another item that can present challenges to your divorce is how the land is used. Often, both spouses have taken part in the use and enjoyment of the land during the marriage. All these considerations, and more, are necessary to consider when determining whether the land will be considered a marital asset subject to division.
