What does equitable division of property mean?
Massachusetts is an equitable division state. That means that during a divorce, property is divided fairly. That doesn’t mean equally. The court take all your assets and divide them in half. Judges take many factors into consideration when deciding on how marital property will be divided, including:
The length of the marriage;
The conduct of the parties during the marriage;
How much each spouse added to the marriage; and
How much each spouse earns or is capable of earning.
