A divorce asset division calculator helps estimate how marital property is divided between spouses. Most states use equitable distribution (fair but not necessarily equal), while nine community property states default to a 50/50 split.

Rumus

MA

Marital Assets ($) — Total value of all property acquired during the marriage

MD

SP

Separate Property ($) — Assets owned before marriage or received as gifts/inheritance

DP

Distribution Percentage (%) — Percentage allocated to each spouse (50% in community property states)
