Debt & Property Division

California Divorce and Property Division Attorney California is a “community property” state. All property, assets and liabilities acquired during the divorce are subject to equitable division between you and your spouse. However, there are exceptions. An experienced divorce and property division lawyer can guide you through the process of defining separate property and community property. Contact us for more information.

The Law Office of William R. Fuhrman is a San Diego, California law firm that represents individuals in every stage of divorce. We bring more than 30 years of experience to every case. Our goal is to help clients define separate and marital property, and ensure that the final divorce settlement accurately reflects a fair division of community property. We also prepare and review prenuptial agreements.

Determining the value of community property is an intricate process. Homes may be appraised and businesses may be valued—but determining the value of a collection of antique furniture or a piece of vacant land can be a bit more complex. How about gifts and inheritance? What is separate and what is community property? We also prepare and review prenuptial agreements.

We are highly proficient at defining assets and liabilities, allocating debts, and tracing money. In complex matters, we are able to draw from a vast network of accountants, financial advisors, and appraisers. Our goal is to provide you with the most effective service and representation during this difficult time. We also prepare and review prenuptial agreements.

What is a QDRO?

A Qualified Domestic Relations Order, or QDRO, is a court order used to divide pension benefits between divorcing spouses. You are entitled to a percentage of your spouse’s pension plan, which you would have received had you remained married. It is important that you contact an attorney to file a QDRO early on in the divorce process, for your pension rights are eradicated if your former spouse remarries, retires, quits or gets fired, dies, becomes disabled, or withdraws money from the pension before you are able to submit a QDRO.

Property division may already be addressed in a prenuptial agreement. We can review the terms of the arrangement and determine whether any components are negotiable.
