Hi,
Is a pension taken into account in a divorce asset split if the pension existed many years ago before the relationship and marriage?

And if so how?

Typically how are pensions split in the settlement? If for example there is a house in both names.

thanks

Depends really upon length of marriage, ages, incomes, children etc plus how they fit into the total pot. It may be possible for one party to have more of another asset and keep pensions intact. Or it may be fair to exclude it from the equation totally. Depends on circumstances for each case and what the parties agree.
