About This Course
Matrimonial law requires attorneys to possess a wide breadth of knowledge since it intersects with many other areas of laws including immigration, contracts, criminal law, property, insurance, trusts, estates and taxes. The place where matrimonial and real estate law overlap is particularly complex and fascinating.
Divorcing couples typically jointly own at least one piece of property, usually the marital residence, though some couples may own many properties. From rental properties, commercial interests and vacation homes, real estate is often the most valuable asset in a marital estate. Without a prenuptial agreement, negotiating the equitable distribution of property can be tricky and attorneys need to know how to best serve their clients.
This CLE course will provide practical information on the basics of real estate law where it meets matrimonial law and how to best navigate these issues in a divorce.
