Per New York law, marital debts, assets, and property must be divided equitably. The court decides what is considered to be an equitable division depending on the duration of the marriage. However, some long-term partnerships or common law unions of the same sex didn’t have their relationship recognized until marriage equality acts came into effect. So any assets that were acquired prior to the partnership becoming a legal marriage may not be categorized as marital property. If you have further questions about this, our same-sex divorce attorney is ready to meet with you!
