Tips for Handling a High-Asset Divorce

Breaking the bonds of marriage is a hard enough life decision, but when you’ve been splitting all your assets with the one you loved, what will it take to protect you and your children? First, make sure you’re working with family law attorneys experienced in high-asset divorce. Many of our clients in Southern California have complicated financial situations, and it’s imperative that our attorneys have top-notch experience to perfectly handle each situation.

Here are few tips from our Certified Family Law Specialists for navigating the complicated financial situations involved in a high-asset divorce:

• Account for the financial climate of the marriage. All personal expenses need to be quantified. Babysitters, schooling, and other homes will be taken into account when the court decides the level of the family’s lifestyle. If all those expenses are incurred at the time of the divorce, child and spousal support may be increased. The division of property may even be altered to account for a lavish lifestyle.
• Obtain records of all financial documents. Go back at least four or five years and make copies of everything. Keep the documents in a hidden place that only you have access to. This will save you time and money! Submit all documents to the court. You’ll need to disclose all information regarding your assets and finances to the court, so make sure to have all the information on-hand.
• Educate yourself on tax consequences. When your attorneys are talking taxes, listen! Support and asset division can greatly affect your taxes and it’s important to have a handle on what you’ll be charged annually.
• Come up with a reasonable settlement. As a high-income individual, your goals will be different than many. You have the opportunity to save your earnings, while also protecting your ex and your kids. Settle with integrity, and you’ll help move the divorce process along much faster than an ugly court battle.
