Marital property is property that was acquired during the marriage. Property that was brought into the marriage by a party remains with that party in most cases, and is not considered to be marital property.

Assets that were inherited by a party during the marriage remains the separate property of that spouse in most cases, and is not considered marital property.

Retirement accounts and pension plans are considered to be marital assets. The amount of those accounts that were earned during the marriage is subject to division at the time of divorce.

A Qualified Domestic Relations Order (QDRO) is a court order that is entered at the end of the case and is directed to the administrator of the pension plan, and ensures that the marital portion of the account will be appropriately divided at the time of retirement.
