BJ Fadem & Associates, APC is a Certified Family Law Specialist

Our Law Firm Is Dedicated To Defending Your Rights

Property and Debt Division is part of Divorce or Legal Separation. The process of determining what is community property accumulated during a marriage can include more than just homes or furniture. It can include: Stock options and portfolios, Retirement plans, IRS’s, and Keogh accounts, Art and antiques, Summer Homes, Commercial Real Property, Vehicles of any kind, Bank Accounts to name just a few.

One of the complicated parts of Property Division and Characterization involves the legal issues of “commingling and transmutation of property”.
Commingling of Property is when separate property and community property is so mixed together it can’t be traced apart.

Transmutation of property is when separate property changes to community property or vice versa.

The Laws governing Property Division and Characterization are changing constantly. Our Attorneys, Staff and Financial Experts have thorough up-to-date knowledge and experience to make sure that your property is divided fairly and that you get what you are entitled to.

Your issue may be time sensitive, please contact our Law Firm to set-up your Initial Consultation.

The reason I return time and time again is knowledgeable employees and the respect I am treated with. I also think that the noncondensending matter in which I was treated was a prime factor.

When you’re in the middle of a complicated or drawn-out divorce, it’s easy to feel like your life is on pause — like you don’t fully exist outside the marriage.

A status-only judgment allows you to legally reclaim your identity while other divorce issues (like custody or finances) are still being worked through. It means you can legally be single — without having to wait for every other piece to be finalized.

It’s not about rushing.
It’s about choosing when you’re ready to close one chapter and step into the next — on your terms.

At FADEM Law, we guide you through this process with clarity and care. Whether you’re pursuing a status-only judgment, full divorce, or need help navigating the emotional and legal layers of identity, we’re here to help you start over with strength.
