Do you own your own house or any other property?
What do you owe money on?
Has one of you stayed home with children while the other
earned the salary?
Is only one of you working at a job where there are
retirement benefits?
The court will divide up a pension plan and other benefit
packages in order to protect a dependent spouse.
Before you got married, did you have property or did you
have bank accounts, a trust funds, stocks, etc. that you still have?
These count as non-marital property although the court in
any settlement will not divide them, they may be factored into your need for
spousal maintenance.
