Equitable distribution

Connecticut applies equitable distribution to all property, including separate property, giving courts broad discretion to assign any property to either party based on fairness considerations.

Statutory Factors

The following factors are commonly evaluated under Connecticut law:

  1. Duration of the marriage
  2. Income and liabilities of each spouse
  3. Contributions to the marriage including homemaking
  4. Future earning capacity
  5. Tax consequences
  6. Waste or dissipation of marital assets
  7. Custodial needs
  8. Any other factors for fairness

Connecticut Property Division

Connecticut courts have broad authority under Conn. Gen. Stat. §46b-81 to assign all property — whether acquired before or during the marriage — to either party. Factors include the length of the marriage, causes of dissolution, age and health of the parties, employability, and each party's financial needs. Connecticut does not distinguish sharply between marital and separate property.
