California is a community property state. What this means is that all assets acquired during the marriage, including the increased value of assets brought into the marriage, are considered part of the “marital pot.” Dividing this pot in the event of divorce can be difficult to accomplish without the help of an experienced Los Angeles divorce lawyer.
At the Law Offices of Korol & Velen, we represent individuals from the South Bay, the San Fernando Valley, and the Greater Los Angeles areas. Our board-certified family law specialist can provide experienced, dedicated legal services related to property division in divorce.
