[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Money given to one spouse during the marriage is fair game in a divorce. The exception is an inheritance (money distributed from an estate after someone dies) where the money is held separately in an individual account throughout the marriage, not commingled with joint assets. [/quote] so just to clarify - money given to one spouse during marriage will always be considered up to division after divorce even if that money always held separately? [/quote] Typically yes, but if this is a big concern, you should speak with a lawyer for real advice. There are things that can be done with trusts and such to protect the assets. How much money is this? If divorce risk is low, and it's not a huge amount of money, it may not be worth it to create a trust or write-up a post-nup. [/quote]
