How is personal property divided in a divorce?
Generally, personal property is property that can be moved. This includes things like cars, jewelry, tools, equipment, furniture, and other household goods. If the property has a legal title, such as a car or boat, and it was purchased during the marriage, it will generally be considered marital property, even if only one spouse's name is on the title. Generally, courts favor a division of personal property that helps each party set up a separate home. For example, if two bedroom sets were acquired during the marriage, the court will view it as inequitable to give both bedroom sets to one party.
