Divorce

Can separate property be converted to marital property during the course of a marriage?

It can depending upon the particular circumstances. If a party clearly intended to convert separate property into marital property, then it becomes marital property. Wisconsin law defines a category called “mixed property,” describing when separate property commingles or mixes together with marital property.
