How does New York's equitable distribution law apply to divorces involving businesses or other large or complex assets?New York is an equitable distribution state, meaning marital property should be divided in a "fair" manner, not necessarily a 50/50 split. Our Rochester divorce lawyers are experienced in navigating the equitable distribution process, especially when it involves businesses or large assets. Factors such as the length of the marriage, the contribution of each spouse to the acquisition or growth of the assets, and the future financial needs of each party will be taken into account when determining a fair division. In cases with businesses or large assets, it is essential to work with an attorney who understands the complexities of valuation and asset division to ensure a just outcome for both parties.
