Separate property is that property owned by a spouse prior to marriage or acquired by a spouse during marriage by gift or inheritance. If new property is acquired with separate property, the new property usually maintains its separate character.

Separate property is most property that a spouse acquired before marriage, after marriage, or during marriage by gift or inheritance. It is not considered part of the marital estate, and therefore is not divided and shared with the other spouse. Please note that separate property may be changed or “transmuted” into community property during marriage. Ask your attorney to explain this to you.
