COMMUNITY &
SEPARATE PROPERTY IN WASHINGTON
Washington is a
Community property state. Upon dissolution, the Court must distribute
all the property owned by the parties between them (both community and
separate). The Court first determines whether the property is
characterized as community property or separate property. Separate
property is that which one spouse owned before the marriage or inherited
or received as a gift during the marriage. Community property is
property acquired during the marriage.
Generally the
division of property is left to the Courts, with the intent that what is
done is just and equitable. Factors that may determine how property is
divided include the length of marriage, age, health and life status of
the spouses. Also considered are each spouses' occupation, income
amounts and sources, and vocational skills for future employment
opportunities.
