Brown Family Mediation 2

Helping You Get What You Need From Your Marriage to Move On

Division of property is typically among the top three most contentious issues in any divorce. Whether you are arguing over retirement benefits or you are concerned about the difference between personal and marital property, our Salt Lake City property division lawyers can answer your property division questions and help you determine what is fair.

Utah is an equitable division state, meaning that property needs to be divided “equitably” or fairly between the two parties. While typically this ends up being a 50-50 split, it isn’t true in all cases. The Salt Lake City attorneys of Brown Family Law have extensive experience in the determination and valuation of marital property and helping our clients receive what they need to reestablish themselves as comfortably as possible after the divorce. We can help you determine the value of what you have put into the marriage and what you need to get out of it.

Salt Lake Lawyers Handling Asset Distribution

Marital property is considered to be property, debts, and assets which were acquired during the marriage. Separate property is property, debts, and assets which each individual owned prior to the marriage, or which was inherited by or gifted to one member of the couple during the marriage. Depending on how the gift or inheritance is used, it may be considered to be “commingled” and become marital property. Other forms of marital property include any increase in value of retirement benefits, businesses, and military pensions (even if they were owned by one person before the marriage).

Our property division lawyers in Salt Lake City, Utah work diligently to find every asset and characterize it correctly to determine your fair share of the marital property. We also have extensive experience in valuation of property, investments, and businesses. We work with appraisers and other experts to establish the value of your marital property to ensure that you receive an equitable settlement. Our goal is to get you through this so you can get on with your life.

I can't say enough good about this group. At the end of the day, Ray Hingson went out of his way to make everything run smooth. Even though the other firm encouraged and allowed them to use character assassination as a tactic, Ray stayed above the fray and made sure things were fair for both parties. If you want integrity and fairness for everyone involved these are your guys.
Response from the owner: Brandon, thank you for the recommendation. Glad Ray was able to help you.

I would absolutely recommend Brown Family Law. In my situation, I paid the consulting fee and met with an attorney. In this meeting, the attorney was very kind and honest. After going through the details of my concerns, he informed me that it was highly likely that taking my concerns to court would cost more than what I'd see back. He also offered to refund the original consulting fee. I felt heard and trusted the advice he provided and decided to not move forward. I felt so much better after just talking with him even though the outcome wasn't what I wanted. At least I know now and am not constantly wondering. Thank you Brown Family Law for giving me peace of mind and for being so trustworthy.
Response from the owner: Mindy, thank you and glad Clay made you feel heard.

Had a zoom video consultation with Daniel today, he was amazing. Where the divorce was completed a few years ago and now modifications need to happen regarding custody and how far apart the parents can live, Daniel put us at ease as to what can be done, and what were the proper steps. He provided many example scenarios so we could have a much better understanding as to how things would or could happen. He answered each question with great detail. Very grateful for Daniel
Response from the owner: Thank you.

Used Nathaniel Garrabrandt for a child custody case. He is very good, very professional and available. Having been through this a few times that communication is very important. The only warning, and this isnt just Nate per se, but very very costly.
Response from the owner: Danny, thank you for recommendation. Glad Nathaniel has been able to help you.
