Equitable distribution

Kentucky divides marital property “in just proportions” under KRS §403.190(1), expressly “without regard to marital misconduct” and with no statutory presumption of equal division. The statute lists four factors: each spouse's contribution to the acquisition of marital property, including a spouse's contribution as homemaker; the value of the property set apart to each spouse; the duration of the marriage; and the economic circumstances of each spouse when the division becomes effective, including the desirability of awarding the family home to the spouse with custody of the children.

Division Factors

The following factors are commonly evaluated under Kentucky law:

  1. Contribution of each spouse to acquisition of the marital property, including contribution of a spouse as homemaker (KRS §403.190(1)(a))
  2. Value of the property set apart to each spouse (KRS §403.190(1)(b))
  3. Duration of the marriage (KRS §403.190(1)(c))
  4. Economic circumstances of each spouse when the division of property is to become effective, including the desirability of awarding the family home or the right to live therein to the spouse having custody of any children (KRS §403.190(1)(d))

Kentucky Property Division

Kentucky Revised Statute §403.190 assigns each spouse's separate property and divides marital property in just proportions, without regard to marital misconduct and with no equal-division presumption, after weighing the statute's four factors: contribution to acquisition including homemaking, the value of property set apart to each spouse, the duration of the marriage, and each spouse's economic circumstances including the family home for a custodial parent.
