New York Asset & Debt Planner
Organize your assets and debts and explore a proposed division for a New York divorce. New York uses equitable distribution, which means marital property is divided fairly based on the circumstances - not automatically 50/50.
This tool is for planning and educational purposes only. It does not determine whether property is marital or separate or predict what a court will award.Planning Scenarios
Apply a proposed allocation to all marital assets or marital debts at once. You can still adjust individual items afterward.
Apply to Marital Assets
Apply to Marital Debts
These percentages are planning scenarios only. New York does not presume that marital property must be divided equally.
Equitable Does Not Always Mean Equal
New York courts divide marital property equitably after considering the circumstances of the marriage and the parties. A 50/50 allocation can be used here as a planning scenario, but it is not a legal presumption or guaranteed result.
Separate property generally remains separate, although classification, tracing, commingling, appreciation, and contributions can make the analysis more complex.

Important: This planner is provided for general educational and planning purposes only. It does not provide legal advice, create an attorney-client relationship, determine whether an asset or debt is marital or separate, or predict how a New York court would divide property. New York uses equitable distribution. Marital property is distributed equitably based on the circumstances of the case and is not automatically divided 50/50. Separate property generally remains separate, but classification may depend on tracing, commingling, appreciation, contributions, agreements, and other facts. Debt allocation may also depend on when and why the debt was incurred and other circumstances. The percentages entered in this tool are user-selected planning assumptions only. Actual property and debt division may differ substantially. Retirement accounts, businesses, real estate, tax issues, separate-property claims, and other complex assets may require legal, valuation, tax, or financial advice.

It does not provide legal advice, create an attorney-client relationship, or predict the amount a court will order.

Actual child support may be higher or lower than the estimate shown.
