One of the issues to be settled in a divorce is the division of property acquired during marriage. Utah law recognizes that both spouses contribute to the property acquired during the marriage, regardless of the income source. The court can divide all marital property regardless of which spouse holds title to the property or where it is located
Deciding what is a fair distribution of property includes several factors, such as how long the marriage has lasted, the age and health of the parties, their occupations, the amounts and sources of income and related matters.
Factors to take into consideration:
long-term marriage
short-term marriage
non-marital property
pre-marital agreements
real property
personal property
retirement and pension plan benefits
etc..
