Arizona is a community property state, meaning most property acquired during the marriage is divided equally. However, the actual process of property and asset division in a Phoenix divorce depends on many factors—including valuations, debts, and whether certain property is considered separate or marital. Our goal is to make sure you leave the marriage with what you’re legally entitled to.
What Counts as Community Property?
Wages earned during the marriage
Real estate acquired during the marriage
Joint bank accounts and investment accounts
Retirement accounts (401k, pensions, etc.)
Vehicles, furnishings, and household items
What Is Considered Separate Property?
Assets acquired before marriage
Inheritances and gifts to one spouse
Property protected by a prenuptial agreement
Valuation and Division Strategy
Our legal team works with appraisers, accountants, and forensic experts (if needed) to value:
Real estate
Businesses
Stock options and investments
Debt obligations and liabilities
We then help negotiate fair settlements or represent you in court if no agreement is reached.
