Term to Know: Commingled Assets
Commingled assets occur when separate property—like an inheritance or funds you owned before marriage—becomes mixed with marital assets over time.
This blending can make it challenging to determine what’s truly yours vs. what’s shared when it comes time to divide property during divorce.
Understanding how commingling works helps ensure a fair and transparent division of assets and sets the stage for a more equitable financial outcome.
