Property division
The law provides for the possibility of registration of the division of property of spouses during marriage and after divorce.
The following options are available for dividing the property:
- Voluntary. The parties shall independently determine the division procedure. Divisible property may include both personal and jointly acquired property of the spouses. The decision reached should be fixed in the agreement which should be notarized.
- Using a mediator. If the parties cannot reach an agreement, it is advisable to contact a qualified lawyer. Although appeal to mediators is not common in the Russian Federation, this option is much more economical than applying the court. The specialist will give a legal analysis of the situation and coordinate the terms of division of the property with each of the parties.
- Trial. If the parties cannot reach an agreement, then the matter will have to be settled in court. This option is the most costly both in terms of time and finances. The state duty to the court is calculated as a percentage of the volume of property, but cannot exceed 60,000 RUB.
In accordance with civil law, the limitation period for the division of property is 3 years from the date of divorce. After this period, the former spouse may go to court, but the defendant may ask the court to apply the limitation period.
