How does North Carolina divide property in a divorce?
North Carolina uses equitable distribution, which means property is divided fairly based on your circumstances—not always 50/50.
What counts as marital property?
Marital property includes assets and debts acquired during the marriage, such as homes, vehicles, savings, and retirement accounts.
What is separate property?
Separate property includes assets owned before marriage, gifts, inheritances, and some personal injury awards.
Do we have to go to court to divide property?
No. Many families settle property division through negotiation or mediation. Court is needed only when agreements can’t be reached.
How are businesses or professional practices handled?
These require valuation by financial experts. We help coordinate evaluations and protect your financial interests.
Can property division be modified after divorce?
Generally no—property division orders are final. However, enforcement issues can be addressed if one spouse doesn’t follow the order.
