How Does Equitable Distribution Work in a Divorce?
Illinois follows the equitable distribution rule for property division during divorce, meaning family courts have the duty and authority to divide marital assets equitably. However, this doesn’t necessarily mean equally. The court may consider various factors to determine a fair distribution, such as:
- The length of the marriage
- The age and health of each spouse
- Each spouse’s current and future financial needs
- The employability and education level of each spouse
- Each spouse’s financial contributions to marital property
- The debts, income, and earning potential of each spouse
Preparing for property division can be daunting, but you don’t have to face it alone. Our divorce attorneys can help you protect your hard-earned assets by advocating for a fair outcome.
