Divorce is a time of uncertainty and stress. The divorce attorneys at the Gentry Law Firm make sure you are informed of the financial consequences of your divorce in Albuquerque, protecting your financial and legal interests in negotiation and/or litigation relating to the division of marital assets.
DIVISION OF ASSETS IN ALBUQUERQUE, NEW MEXICO
New Mexico is a community property state, meaning that any assets acquired during the marriage are divided equally in the event of divorce. Debts acquired during the marriage also belong to both spouses as well. While courts aim to divide property in a way that is equitable to both parties, it does not necessarily mean your property will be divided equally, particularly if spousal support is at issue.
