Everett Attorney Helping With The Valuation Of Assets

The valuation of assets is a complex process that involves more than simply gathering bank statements, selling the house and splitting everything down the middle. The first step to fairly dividing marital property is understanding how much it is worth.
In Washington, community property laws require the equitable division of property acquired during the marriage. Equitable in this case does not mean exactly 50-50. One individual may receive the financial benefits of real estate while then also taking on a great debt burden as a result. Or a stay at home spouse may receive a larger share of financial assets based on the couple’s decision for that spouse to not work. How you value these assets will determine how much each individual is willing to negotiate in a customized asset division agreement.
