Identifying, Valuing and Dividing Marital Property
Marital property is defined as anything the spouses acquired during marriage, regardless of how it was acquired. Gifts and inheritances are exceptions to this rule, as is income and appreciation from separate or premarital property.
Simply stated, marital property must be identified, valued and divided on an "equitable" basis. This is easier said than done. Many factors can complicate this task, including transformations of separate property into marital property — as well as active appreciation, passive appreciation and the effects of inflation on the value of separate property that has been transformed into marital property.
Attorney Randal A. Lowry has handled thousands of cases involving these and other complex property issues. Our firm has the experience, knowledge and resources needed to handle any property division matter.

In some cases, our firm calls in outside experts that can provide vital insights into valuation questions. We have a network of appraisers, business valuation specialists, accountants and other financial professionals who can support your case.
