Division of Assets in Oklahoma

Oklahoma is a "joint industry" state. This means that property, including assets and debts, acquired during the marriage through the joint effort of the parties is marital property. Marital property is subject to equitable division in a divorce settlement.

Most often, equitable division means that the marital property is split 50/50. However, in certain circumstances, one party may be awarded more or less property than the other party. We will work to provide you with an equitable share of your marital assets and the marital debt.

Understanding Martial Debts

Courts generally examine marital debts more closely than assets. They look at a number of factors to determine how to divide debts, including:

• Was the spending wasteful?
• Was the debt incurred without the other spouse's knowledge?
• Was the spending excessive?

In cases where one spouse incurred the debt wastefully, excessively or wrongfully, the court may grant a larger portion of the debts to that spouse. We can help you evaluate your debts to determine a fair allocation of debt in your divorce.
