Dissolution Vs Divorce

Summary

Dissolution and divorce are similar but not the same. In Ohio, dissolution is a mutual agreement, while divorce is contested. Property division is equitable but not necessarily equal. Spousal support is determined by factors like income, health, age, and the length of the marriage. Hiding assets during dissolution is illegal and can lead to penalties. Social Security Income is considered separate property and usually cannot be divided, but it can affect spousal support calculations. A 401k is typically considered a marital asset and can be divided. Alimony is determined by various factors and is not a fixed percentage of income. Consult with a lawyer for precise calculations.
