Massachusetts divorce lawyers can guide you through your property division. If a prenuptial agreement was signed, it will protect certain assets in the divorce. Property will be divided in an equal share for both parties in some states. In other states courts award equitable shares, which are not necessarily equal shares. An equitable share may give one spouse more or less than half of the assets depending on a number of factors like length of marriage, conduct during marriage, contribution toward the acquisition and preservation of the assets, income, education, health, age, and so forth. Lawyers help clients by identifying and valuing assets, and then negotiating or litigating for the best possible outcome.
