How Are Assets Divided During a Divorce?
Dividing assets acquired during a marriage can be a complex procedure. In a perfect world, divorcing couples would divide up the property fairly and evenly amongst themselves, but in reality this is usually decided through fierce negotiations or in court. The court handles separation of assets by a means called equitable distribution.

Separating Assets Based on What Is Fair
Equitable distribution is the basis by which the majority of states, including New York, separate assets in a divorce. With this method of distribution a judge determines what is fair, rather than dividing property in half, as is done in a community property state. This means that one party could end up with the majority of the assets.
