Now you know your half.

Here's everything we built together. Plain language, real numbers.

How these estimates are calculated

Know Your Half uses established formulas used by family law professionals as starting reference points:

  • Alimony — AAML (American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers) guideline formula
  • Child support — Income Shares Model, used as statutory formula in 41 states
  • Home equity — Market value minus mortgage balance, split by state property rules
  • Retirement — Coverture fraction (months married ÷ total plan months), the legal standard for QDRO calculations

These are professional starting points — not legal determinations. Your actual numbers will be set by your state's specific rules, your judge, and your negotiated settlement.

Your divorce involves more assets and liabilities than this calculator covers. During the legal process, both sides go through financial disclosure and discovery — a formal exchange of all financial information. This calculator does not account for:
  • Investment and brokerage accounts
  • Business ownership or self-employment assets
  • Stock options or deferred compensation
  • Vehicles, boats, recreational equipment
  • Personal property, jewelry, art, collectibles
  • Credit card debt, student loans, car loans
  • Monthly expenses that courts consider in support calculations

Use these numbers to understand the landscape and prepare for your attorney meeting — not as your final settlement figure.
These are estimates to help you understand the landscape. Always work with a licensed family law attorney for your actual case. Numbers may vary significantly based on your state, specific circumstances, judicial discretion, and factors not captured here.
