What is the Difference between Community Property and Non-community Property?

During divorce proceedings, the couple will often have to divide their assets and property and may have to deal with community property and non-community property. Community property typically includes property that was acquired during the marriage and any earnings that were gained while the couple was legally married. Non-community property often includes inheritance and gifts that were given or awarded to just one person.

In some cases, the division of property during a divorce can be tricky and difficult to determine without legal assistance. For help with divorce, mediation, and other family law proceedings, contact the Orlando family lawyers of the Schlegel Law Group at 407-648-0280 today.
