Property Settlement

Protecting Your Rights During Division of Assets

A divorce is more than the end of a couple's relationship or the division of a family. It requires a new legal agreement to settle the details once dictated by your marriage, an agreement that divides the marital property — the wealth and obligations accumulated during your time together. There are countless questions to answer, such as:

  • Who will keep the house?
  • Who gets the cars?
  • How will retirement accounts be split?
  • How will military or civil pensions be handled?
  • Who retains control or ownership over small business assets?
  • Who is responsible for taking on debt?

At the Law Office of Richard L. Downey, located in Fairfax, we help clients from all income levels and professions face the difficult and practical matters involved in a divorce.  We have the resources and skills to handle all family law, divorce and property settlement issues in Northern Virginia.
