Complex property division in Manassas Park involves the classification and valuation of marital assets under Virginia’s equitable distribution statute, Va. Code § 20-107.3. This statute, personally amended by Mr. Sris, requires the court to consider 11 factors when dividing property. Marital property includes assets acquired during the marriage, while separate property — pre-marriage assets, inheritances, and gifts — is excluded. The court divides marital property fairly but not necessarily 50/50. Business valuations, stock options, retirement accounts, and professional practices often require experienced testimony from forensic accountants and business valuators. Manassas Park Circuit Court at 9311 Lee Avenue handles all property division matters. The firm was founded in 1997 by former prosecutor Mr. Sris, who brings over 120 years of combined attorney experience to each case.
