Community Property And Survivorship

Summary

In Arizona, legal separation can impact community property status, but if both parties agreed and signed the title as Community Property with Right of Survivorship, it may still hold that designation. The right of survivorship typically remains intact unless explicitly changed. Consulting with an Arizona attorney is recommended for specific guidance based on your situation.

We are in Arizona
In Arizona, community property laws apply, meaning property acquired during marriage is generally considered community property. However, legal separation can affect this.
- If the property was titled as community property with right of survivorship, it typically remains in effect unless changed.
- Legal separation might affect the community property status, but not necessarily the right of survivorship.

Lets start over
Sure, let's start fresh. Could you please specify whether your legal issue is related to property division, and if you are currently in Georgia or Arizona? This will help me provide the most relevant information for your situation.
My wife and i are legally separated in Arizona. that separation included an order of property division. After we were legally separated, we thought we correctly undid that legal separation, so we bought a home together, both agreeing to have it titled as Community Property with right of survivorship. We found out several years later that we did not correctly undo the legal separation and are still legally separated. The house being titled the way it is is my question. Even though the separation ended community property, since we both agreed to it and both signed off on the title, is it possible that the home IS community property?
