Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Re: divorce and real property division

An inheritance is not marital property unless it gets commingled with the marital estate. For example you inherit a $100,000 and then place it in a joint checking account.

Given that the property was titled in both names it most likely will be considered part of the marital estate. As the act of titling the property in both names shows intent for both parties to be owners of the property.

If you have any questions feel free to contact me, the initial consultation is free.
