How Is Property Divided in Florida?

Each state has its own laws regarding property division. In the state of Florida, only marital property-property that was acquired during marriage-is divided. This can include assets such as real estate, furniture, and vehicles. Property that was obtained before marriage is considered separate and is not divided during divorce.

When dividing property, a judge will consider the following:

• The contributions made by both spouses
• The length of the marriage
• The financial situation of each spouse
• The efforts of each spouse to improve their household's finances
• The contributions made by either spouse to support the other's career
