Distinguishing High-Asset Divorce From More Straightforward Cases
High-asset divorce differs significantly from standard divorce proceedings due to the intricacies involved in dividing substantial financial assets.
In these cases, thorough valuation of assets and equitable distribution become paramount, often requiring specialized expertise to ensure fair outcomes for both parties.
Navigating Contested Child Custody
In high-asset divorces involving children, the stakes are even higher. Determining custody arrangements requires careful consideration of the children’s best interests while also addressing the financial implications for their upbringing. Private school admission, sports team involvement and extended family involvement can all make these cases highly consequential for a young person’s upbringing.
Our attorneys approach these cases with compassion and dedication, striving to achieve resolutions that prioritize the well-being of the children involved while also honoring our clients’ perspectives.
High-Asset Divorce Vs. Separation
Unlike separation, divorce permanently dissolves the marital bond, allowing individuals to move forward with their lives independently.
For religious or health insurance reasons or for the sake of potential reconciliation, a legal separation may offer a temporary solution for couples experiencing marital discord. However, a high-asset divorce provides a more conclusive legal and financial framework for dividing assets and establishing family-friendly custody arrangements.
Premarital Agreements And Asset Protection
Premarital or prenuptial agreements (prenups) may play a crucial role in high-asset divorce cases. When couples have defined asset distribution and financial responsibilities before entering into marriage, a prenup can result in significant savings in terms of cost and conflict.
When applicable, our family law attorneys review prenups as soon as possible in the divorce process to determine whether there are grounds to contest them.
Types Of Assets Divided In High-Asset Divorce
In high-asset divorce cases, consequential assets that may be subject to division, include:
- Real estate, including the marital home, one or more vacation homes, investment properties and commercial properties
- Vehicles, including everyday modes of transportation as well as collector cars and work-related trucks
- Valuables such as jewelry, tools, antiques, art and other types of collectibles
- Bank accounts, cryptocurrency accounts and other financial accounts
- Stocks and bonds
- Businesses and business interests
- Retirement accounts such as 401(k) and IRA accounts
Our attorneys have extensive experience navigating the complexities of asset division, ensuring that each client receives a fair and equitable share of marital property. We are especially keen on ensuring that our clients have the opportunity to keep the assets that mean the most to them.
