so in new jersey there’s a difference

between marital and non-marital property

marital property is generally property

that was acquired during the marriage so

we’re usually looking at the date of

marriage to the date of complaint for

divorce sometimes there might be

non-marital property such as pre-marital

property if someone owns for instance a

house before coming into the marriage

then that property does not become

marital property it remains as

pre-marital property and so what that

means is when we are dividing things up

in the divorce that pre-marital property

is going to stay out of the pot of

things that we are dividing
