The question of division of matrimonial properties , has been subject to discussion depending on the state jurisdiction one resides. After the marriage comes to an end or being terminated depending on the reasons for termination, what comes first to the mind of the parties in concern or people around the parties, is the question of division of matrimonial properties, this question usually comes even before the question of maintenance or custody of the child/children if any.

The division of matrimonial properties to a husband and wife who has been spending most of the time in any work-place that profits both or either of the party, the joint effort properties that are resulted from the said physical or pecuniary work, are proven to the court on either of the party claiming to have contributed on the existence of the properties in concern, failure to prove your contribution on joint efforts properties results not to get the portion of the said matrimonial property. On this aspect evidence is the vital role on the claim alleged.

But on the aspect as to whether domestic services of a husband or wife amounted to joint efforts towards acquisition of matrimonial property, this aspect is of more debatable, the answer depends on the either of the two position you take;

The liberal position that argues that, domestic services are regarded as joint efforts towards the acquisition of matrimonial properties, or the conservative position who opposes and argues that, domestic services are conjugal obligations and cannot be equated to work which involves physical participation  in the production of the assets itself.
