Trust Vocabulary

Episode Summary

Trusts present unique challenges when dividing marital assets in a divorce, and may also be a factor in determining support. Some trusts are considered marital property subject to division, while others are protected from division but may still impact the Court’s overall financial analysis. The case law on this topic has been ever-evolving and the past few years have seen a cascade of decisions from our highest courts.
