ABSTRACT
Property distribution in family law is a complicated and diverse topic that involves legal, social, and economic factors. This research paper delves deeply into the concepts, procedures, and difficulties associated with property division in family law situations. This paper investigates the various factors that influence property allocation during divorce, separation, or dissolution of relationships by carefully reviewing statutes, case law, and scholarly literature.
The study looks at how property distribution laws have evolved over time, compares different legal systems in different jurisdictions, and assesses the fundamental concepts that underpin models like communal property, equitable distribution, and others. It also looks into how gender dynamics, societal shifts, and cultural norms affect the outcomes of property division. This study aims to provide a better understanding of the complexities involved in property distribution under family law by highlighting key patterns, inconsistencies, and emerging issues. It will benefit legal practitioners, policymakers, and researchers alike.
