When you have significant marital assets to protect, property division becomes even more critical. Your attorney must have experience with high net worth divorce to know how to strategize in these cases.
Division Of Sophisticated Assets
The Bruce A. Chamberlain Law Office provides divorce representation to hundreds of people each year. We have the experience to undertake the investigation necessary to find hidden assets, value complex assets and argue for a fair division. We work with financial experts such as forensic accountants to ensure that your property rights are protected in a high net worth divorce.
New London County complex property division lawyer Bruce Chamberlain is prepared to help you understand your rights and protect your assets.
Connecticut is an equitable distribution state. Equitable distribution means that the court strives for a distribution that it considers fair, not necessarily equal. Expecting that the marital assets will be divided 50-50 between you and your spouse may not be realistic. You want an attorney who can make a strong argument for your property rights.
A high net worth couple may have marital assets that include:
- Businesses
- Professional practices
- Stock options and portfolios
- Pensions and benefit plans
- Retirement plans, IRAs and 401(k)s
- Real estate holdings
- Jewelry and art
- Vehicles and boats
- High-end furnishings
We will inventory all assets and debts in the estate. This process may involve working with financial experts to discover hidden assets. We will also value all personal and real property as well as financial and business assets. You can rely on our thorough preparation before we take action.
