Community Property Attorneys Serving Arizona
Navigating the division of community property in an Arizona divorce or legal separation can be challenging. Arizona’s community property laws require a fair and equitable division of community property acquired during the marriage, and the process can quickly become complex. Fortunately, the attorneys at Hildebrand Law, PC are here to guide you every step of the way.
What is Community Property in Arizona?
Under Arizona law, most assets and debts acquired by either spouse during the marriage are classified as “community property” and are generally subject to division upon divorce or legal separation. This includes:
- The family home and other real estate.
- Vehicles, furniture, and personal belongings.
- Income earned by either spouse during the marriage.
- Retirement accounts, pensions, and investments.
- Debts such as loans, credit card balances, and mortgages.
Separate property—those assets acquired before the marriage, through inheritance, or gifts to one spouse—typically remains the separate property of the recipient spouse. However, disputes can arise over whether certain assets or debts are community or separate property.
