I am divorcing my husband of over 20 years

In an equitable jurisdiction states, such as Massachusetts,  all property, including gifted and inherited property, are considered marital assets and subject to division, even if the property is held in the name only one spouse.  However, being an equitable jurisdiction state, the court may chose not to divide the gifted/inherited property or limit the division of the asset.  There are a number of factors which plays a role in the court's analysis, such as the length of the marriage, age of the parties, health of the parties, the needs of any children, the ability of the both spouse to earn future income, etc.  Please let me know if you have any further questions.
