Can children decide who they want to live with in a divorce or custody case?

In Oklahoma if a child’s over the age of 12, there’s a presumption that they can express their preference to the court. Their preference is simply where they wanna live and what type of schedule they want with both parents. But that preference is not minding on the court meaning the court or judge can take that into consideration with all the other evidence when they’re deciding what to do.

This can be an important part of your case when going after custody, but it’s important to talk to your lawyer about how to do that in the impacts of doing that.

Did you know Oklahoma is NOT a 50/50 divorce state? Here’s how property is actually divided — and the mistake that could cost you thousands.

Oklahoma uses equitable distribution, meaning a judge divides marital property fairly — not necessarily equally. Factors like the length of your marriage, each spouse’s financial contributions, and future earning capacity all influence the outcome.

But before division happens, courts separate two categories: marital property (income, the home, retirement accounts acquired during the marriage) and separate property (assets you owned before the marriage or received as a gift or inheritance). Separate property typically stays with you — if you can prove it.

The costly mistake many Oklahomans make? Commingling — mixing separate property with marital assets. Depositing an inheritance into a joint account or using it to pay down a jointly-titled mortgage can cause you to lose its protected status entirely.

Protect yourself: keep bank statements, gift letters, and inheritance paperwork. A paper trail can make or break your case.
