Property division on divorce follows one of two regimes — equitable distribution (most states; not necessarily equal) or community property (nine states; presumptively 50/50). These articles cover the separate-vs.-marital characterization, valuation timing, tracing rules for commingled assets, and the equitable factors courts weigh in distribution.
