In California, the property is divided according to community property law.

Similarly, any debt incurred is also the responsibility of both parties. However, there is an exception which is known as separate property if the property or asset was either a gift, inherited, or was owned before the marriage took place then it will not be required to be divided equally There are disputes arising where spouses disagree whether a property is a community or separate property and this is where representation from experienced attorneys in this area is highly essential Once it is decided that the property is community or separate, the next step is for the valuation which again requires attorney guidance and arrangement
