California Divorce and Property Division Attorneys
The difference between community property and separate property lies at the heart of property division during a divorce. Before any property can be divided, the parties or the court must determine which property is eligible. At The Mellor Law Firm, our lawyers will help you sort through your assets to determine which of your marital assets fall into which category. We will work hard to see that a fair division is accomplished.
The Mellor Law Firm brings more than 40 years of combined experience to every case we handle. Throughout the Inland Empire, which is made up of Riverside County and San Bernardino County, we have built a trusted reputation for doing what is right for our clients. Let us show you the skills we built that reputation on.
In California, all marital assets acquired during the marriage are owned by both husband and wife. This is considered community property. Any asset acquired before marriage, or by gift or inheritance during the marriage, is typically considered separate property.
Through careful scrutiny of financial and property records, our divorce asset protection lawyers will work to see that you get to keep what is rightfully yours.
We offer big-firm experience combined with small-firm sensitivity. Our team understands the stress that can accompany processes such as property division and other divorce matters. We want to take some of that stress off of your shoulders. We will apply the knowledge and resources you might typically expect from a much larger firm, along with the personal care and attention you would expect from a small firm. We care about our clients, and we work hard to get you the results you deserve.
