Arizona Property Division Laws

In Arizona, all assets and all debt fall under the community property law. This means that any asset that you acquired during your marriage is jointly owned by both you and your spouse. Thus, during a divorce, you are entitled to half of the value of that asset regardless of who paid for it or whose name is on the title. In most cases, all property will then be divided 50/50. Some examples of this include:

All income earned by both spouses during the marriage
Any investment income earned by both spouses during the marriage
Any asset purchased by any spouse, including houses, cars, pets, etc during the marriage
Any debt acquired by either spouse during the marriage

What many people don't know about property division law during a divorce in the state of Arizona is that property acquired before a marriage may also be subject to property division regardless of who owned it.

Judges, or the divorce agreement if you enter arbitration or settle out of court, have the final say on property division. There are no firm laws, mainly because each divorce case is so different from any other. All property must be disclosed at the time of the divorce so that it can be divided up evenly. Each asset will be valued as well.
