Equitable Distribution in New Jersey Divorce

In New Jersey any property or debt acquired during a marriage belongs to the spouse who earned it.  However, in the event of a divorce, all of the acquired property will be divided between the parties in a fair and equitable manner.  Fair and equitable, however, do not necessarily mean equal.  The division is not black and white.  There is no proscribed formula to calculate who gets what.  In order to make that determination, judges will consider a variety of factors both objective and subjective.  Such factors include the length of marriage, age of the parties, and each spouse's contribution towards the marriage.  It is important to remember that the laws of equitable distribution only apply in court.  Therefore, if you and your spouse can negotiate your own divorce terms, you can work out the distribution of assets and debts in any manner you choose.
