FAQ

In Florida, an LLC is most often considered marital property, which means each spouse carries an ownership interest in the company, regardless of who started the business or whose name is on the company letterhead. This can make it more difficult to split assets during the dissolution process, but not impossible.

A: No, there is no automatic “7 year divorce rule” in Florida. Florida is a no-fault divorce state, meaning couples can file for divorce at any time without proving fault, regardless of the length of their marriage.

In most cases, if a husband operates a business as a sole proprietorship, he is personally liable for the business debts. This means that his personal assets, including joint assets with his wife, may be at risk if the business is unable to meet its financial obligations.

A business will normally be considered marital property if it was started or acquired during the marriage, even if only one spouse is involved in its day-to-day operations. If the business was established before the marriage, it might initially be considered separate property.

In Florida, the total cumulative value of both spouses' retirement is split by the parties. If the husband has a 401K worth $275,000 and the wife has a 401K worth $25,000, for example, each spouse would receive $150,000 or fifty percent of the total value of their retirement accounts accrued during the marriage.

Most courts will give a fair and equitable split (most times, 50/50) on all assets acquired after marriage. That includes the 401(k) for either of you but it could also depend on what the distribution of assets is. If she keeps all the equity in the house, you may keep all the 401(k).

Separate property is not subject to division at the time of divorce unless you added her name to the property or otherwise signed something agreeing to give her an interest. Since the LLC was created during the marriage, your wife is entitled to half the value of your interest.

Under ERISA, each fund is subject to additional requirements and obligations once more than 25 percent of the fund's assets under management (AUM) are subject to ERISA (the 25 percent threshold).

You may believe that in a Florida divorce, what is yours, with your name on it, is not subject to division. But this is not necessarily the case. Under Florida law, a pension, 401k, IRA, or profit-sharing plan you contributed during your marriage is subject to division. Simply put, it is a marital asset.
