A Fathers' Rights in Property Division
Florida provides for an equitable distribution of property when a divorce occurs. The courts in Florida will not only factor in assets, but debts as well, when it comes to determining your rights to property. Equitable does not necessarily mean equal, especially in dealing with husbands and fathers. Many courts tend to favor the mother when it comes to distributing property, so having a knowledgeable Orlando fathers' rights attorney is crucial to ensuring you obtain the property you are entitled to.

Factors Involved in Property Division
This can be a complex area when facing divorce, especially if there are many assets and liabilities in the family. With the help of a skilled fathers' rights lawyer, the collection of all the necessary data to properly evaluate the total assets and liabilities can be performed. Some of the many factors that go into the determination of an equitable property distribution include:
- Each spouse's income
- Length of the marriage
- Contribution of either spouse to the career and education of the other spouse
- Value of the home
- Value of any business owned
- Available cash
- Retirement accounts
- Stocks
- Vehicles
- Contribution made towards the care and education of the children
- Debts and liabilities
A value must be determined for some of the factors that are not purely monetary. Your home may have more value to you than its current worth, especially if your family intends to continue residing in it. The firm will present a strong case for your share of an equitable portion of your property and will take aggressive steps to work out the distribution of your assets in the most advantageous way possible.
