Closure Any Property For Division In Ohio

Q: What is a wife entitled to in a divorce in Ohio?

Ohio isn&#039;t a community property state. Instead, Ohio follows what&#039;s known as the &quot;equitable distribution&quot; model for dividing assets and debts during a divorce. However, unlike many other states that use this model, Ohio requires judges to divide a couple&#039;s marital property equally, unless that would be unfair.
