Asset Division
There are two key concepts for asset division: defining what exactly is community property and what is separate property between spouses.
Spousal Support/Alimony
Alimony is an allowance out of one spouse's (or ex-spouse's) separate estate for the support of the other spouse when the spouses are living separately.
