Key Principles in Utah

Fair & Equitable Factors Framework

In Utah, property acquired during the marriage is divided equitably—meaning fairly and justly based on economic circumstances, contributions, and earning capacity—which does not always result in an exact 50/50 split.

Recommended Next Steps for Utah Residents

  1. Catalog all household items, furniture, and vehicles using room-by-room inventory tracking.
  2. Tag items clearly as Marital Property, Separate Property (pre-marital/inherited), or Disputed.
  3. Obtain current Fair Market Value (FMV) estimates for all cataloged personal property.
  4. Consult a licensed Utah family law attorney to review local court rules and equalization options.
