Business Division Lawyers in New York

How does Equitable Distribution affect Business Division?

When marital property is divided in New York during a divorce, if a business is owned by one or both spouses, it must be determined how the business will be divided.  New York is an equitable distribution state which means all marital property must be divided equitably. This means that if a business was created during the marriage, it is considered marital property and subject to division. If a business was already formed before a marriage took place, unless there is a prenuptial agreement stating otherwise, the business may still be subject to equitable division under equitable distribution laws.
