Reimbursement between marital estates

A claim that may arise when community or separate assets fund acquisitions or expenses legally attributable to another estate.

What to bear in mind

The origin of funds and nature of each transaction are central. A contribution does not itself change ownership of every asset.

Preparing for your consultation

Bring earlier orders and agreements, details of those affected and a timeline. Identify the decision or procedure you need advice on.
