Division of Marital Property in Missouri
Under Missouri law, it is entirely up to the judge's discretion to determine how property will be divided. However, it is crucial to make sure the assets and properties in question are properly valued. Our attorneys have extensive experience valuing and dividing a wide variety of properties, including:
- Real estate holdings
- Family home
- Stock portfolios
- Investment accounts
- Pensions
- 401(k), IRA and other retirement accounts
- Business assets
- Family-owned businesses
In dividing marital property, a number of factors will be taken into consideration, including the value of property, relative earning power of each spouse, non-monetary contributions of a stay-at-home spouse and the actual earnings of each spouse during the marriage.
Our lawyers and support staff work with an exceptional team of CPAs, business valuation experts and other financial experts to assist us in discovering marital assets and supporting our clients' cases in court.
