When couples decide to divorce, one of the many things they consider is how to divide the assets or property they have accumulated during their marriage. This includes things like:
- checking and savings accounts
- automobiles and other vehicles or sporting equipment
- the marital home or other real estate
- retirement accounts
- investment portfolios
- stocks and shares in a company or business
In Indiana, the presumption is an equal split (50/50) and it is up to either the husband or wife to prove a claim for deviation. Sometimes, parties will be required to sell assets and divide the proceeds. Other times, property can be divided between the parties.
