The infographic provides an overview of complex property division in Texas, a community property state. It explains that all assets acquired during the marriage are typically considered community property and belong to both spouses. However, there are provisions for separate property, including assets owned before marriage, inheritances, gifts to one spouse, and personal injury damage awards. The division of assets is meant to be equitable based on various factors, including each spouse’s needs, health, education, and income prospects, as well as any children’s needs.
