Community Property

Property division is never easy, but Louisiana brings extra complications to this already difficult process. These issues can be dealt with strategically when you have the right family law attorney in your corner.

As a community property state, Louisiana dispenses with the fair and equitable doctrines that typically dominate in other regions, instead imposing a 50/50 approach to all assets acquired while married. This might seem straightforward at first glance, but it can prompt many significant risks that must be addressed by a skilled divorce lawyer. It is important to have an attorney familiar with the unique laws applicable to reimbursements for separate property, civil fruits, and use of community property during the divorce process.

Our attention to detail allows us to spot opportunities that other legal representatives might miss.
