High Net Worth Equitable Distribution And Asset Protection
One of the major issues that need to be resolved in a high-asset divorce is the equitable distribution of property. All assets and liabilities possessed by the spouses are taken into account and characterized as separate or marital property. The marital property is then divided equitably between the parties, either via settlement or after a decision by the judge.
Assets that are often considered in a high net worth divorce include:
- The marital home
- Vacation homes
- Other real estate
- Businesses and partnerships
- Retirement funds
- 401(k)s
- Stocks and bonds
- Bank and savings accounts
- Offshore accounts
- Cars and furniture
- Fine art and jewelry
- Coin or other collections whether started as a hobby or as an investment
Businesses and professional partnerships are common in high-asset divorce cases. These are some of the most difficult assets to valuate and divide. Fortunately, our experienced attorney has extensive skills and knowledge when it comes to business valuation issues.
