NON-MARITAL PROPERTY IN SARASOTA, FL

Protect Your Assets with Flaherty Law Firm


Non-marital property plays a vital role in the equitable distribution process during a divorce. As defined by Florida Statute 61.075, non-marital property encompasses a broad range, including but not limited to, real and personal property acquired before the marriage, inheritances, specific gifts, property excluded from joint ownership through mutual agreements, and income generated from non-marital assets. Some debts might also fall under this classification.


Importantly, during the course of the marriage, non-marital liabilities may exist if they are kept distinctly separate from marital assets. These liabilities might include those obtained by forgery or unauthorized signature during the marriage. It's crucial to early identify any non-marital property as these assets will not be subject to equitable distribution in case of a divorce.
