Joint marital property usually includes:

• Houses
• Cars
• Furnishings and personal property
• Vacation property
• Retirements accounts
• Savings accounts
• Investment assets
• Family-owned businesses
• Tax debt
• Credit card debt

• Pensions, 401(k)s and other retirement funds are distributed by means of a qualified domestic relation order (QDRO).
