Download or read book The Smart Woman s Guide to Property Law written by Carla Spivack and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-04-08 with total page 200 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The income gap between women and men has gotten lots of attention in the last few decades: today women earn seventy-nine cents for every dollar men earn. But fewer people are aware of the much more serious wealth gap: for every dollar in wealth men own, women own thirty-two cents. Thirty-two cents! Wealth matters. Wealth is what gives us a financial safety net when we lose our jobs, break up a relationship or divorce, we or our dependents become sick, or when we are hit by some other financial crisis. It enables us to build security, to give our children a future, and to retire. It is passed from generation to generation, allowing wealthy families to stay wealthy over time. Wealth can generate income, whether through investments in the financial markets, or real estate, or through funding a startup business, and more. Significant wealth even allows us to influence our world by allowing us to contribute to political campaigns and policy initiatives. For these reasons, wealth is a better indicator of financial status than income: it reveals who is secure and influential and who is not. By treating women and men equally without recognizing the gross social and economic advantages that differentiate us, the law perpetuates the wealth gap. Here, Carla Spivack takes readers through a tour of a woman’s life stages and the property laws that may apply and hinder their financial independence. From living together to marriage, from divorce to inheritance, the circumstances invite unfair treatment that leaves women out in the cold. Understanding how to protect your assets, fight for what is fair, and increase financial security is increasingly important as the wage gap continues to flourish. Readers will learn about the laws that work against them and how to protect themselves regardless of their relationship status. For all women of all ages, here is your guide to keeping your wealth not matter how your relationship fares.

This book was released on 2017-11-23 with total page 388 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Marriage and Divorce Laws of Massachusetts The design of this work is to present in a concise form the law and rules of practice regulating the proceedings in causes of divorce. The leading cases in which questions of divorce law have been considered and determined have been carefully collected and cited. While it professes to be a handbook of Massachusetts law, frequent references are made to the decisions elsewhere, whenever they coincide with our own, or directly tend to explain and elucidate the text. The volume contains a treatise upon the substantive law of divorce and nullity of marriage, together with the defences commonly employed in such cases; the statutes relating to marriage and divorce, including the legislation of 1902; citations from the first 181 volumes of the Massachusetts Reports, and an appendix of forms.
