Oregon follows equitable distribution. This does not mean equal; it means fair, based on the circumstances of the marriage. Judges consider factors like length of the marriage, each spouse's financial situation, contributions to the household, and future earning potential.
In practice, many equitable distribution cases settle close to 50/50, but the outcome can vary significantly depending on the facts.
Spousal Support (spousal support) may be awarded in Oregonbased on the length of the marriage, each spouse's income and earning capacity, and the standard of living established during the marriage. The amount and duration vary widely and are often the most negotiated part of a settlement.
