Rancho Cucamonga Property Division Attorneys

Division of property during a divorce is often difficult and emotional. Whether you agree on dividing property civilly or you and your spouse cannot agree on who gets what, our California divorce attorneys can help you balance your legal, emotional and financial interests.

At Soheila Azizi & Associates, P.C., in Rancho Cucamonga, California, we are dedicated to helping individuals going through a divorce achieve a fair property settlement. Contact our law offices to schedule a consultation about property division during a divorce.

What is the difference between Community Property and Separate Property in California?

Almost any property, debt or asset that you and your spouse obtained during your marriage is considered joint or "community property." This property belongs to both you and your spouse and must be divided during your divorce.

Property that you acquired before your marriage and certain gifts/inheritances that you receive during marriage is considered separate property and is legally yours to keep.

How is Community Property Divided in a California Divorce?

Under California law, community property must be divided "equally." Unless you can come to an agreement about the property, the court will split it in a way that gives each spouse an equal "net value" (financially equal). The court rarely comes to a decision that is better than an agreement between the parties in a divorce.

Our lawyers will first try to help you and your spouse come to a mutually satisfactory agreement about property division through mediation or other alternative dispute resolution techniques. If that is not possible, we are experienced trial attorneys and we vigorously protect your rights in family court.


Dividing Complex Property

As experienced California family law attorneys, we understand the issues that arise when the property at stake is more than your house, car or your CD collection. We can help you with the division of complex property such as:


  • Long-term community debt
  • Medical and legal practices
  • Division of retirement accounts and pensions
  • Family owned businesses (business valuation and dissolution)
  • Second homes and other real estate interests
  • Military pensions/veteran's benefits
  • We also help with difficult property division issues such as finding debts or assets hidden by your spouse before or during your marriage.
