Florida divorce laws provide that any and all property acquired during the course of the marriage is subject to equitable distribution. See Florida Statute 61.075. While there are exceptions to the rule, the court has the power to divide property and liabilities regardless of whose name is on the title including, but not limited to real property, bank accounts, retirements, vehicles and credit card debt.
There is no legal separation in Florida. Therefore, you still may be accruing assets and liabilities subject to equitable distribution even after you have separated from your spouse.
