Assisting You with Every Detail
Property and debts are divided in a manner in which the parties can agree is fair, or failing that agreement, as the court deems is fair. The valuation of assets, when the asset was acquired and how, such as by inheritance, is also a very important issue and something we deal with every day. The value of assets, versus the debts and liabilities assumed by the parties, are all factored in to arrive at an equitable figure. The goal is settlement that is fair, just and equitable. There is a lot at stake financially, and whether your divorce is amicable or contested, disputes do occur. Conflicts can happen when one party fails to fully disclose assets, the value of an asset is questioned or if there is a disagreement about what items are marital property. When it comes to the division of your property, an experienced family law attorney is an invaluable resource.
Items that may be divided include:
- Debts/ liabilities
- Retirement accounts
- Retirement benefits
- Real estate property and investments
- Division of business partnership and corporate interests
- Personal property
- Bank accounts
- Stock options
- Inheritance
- Gifted property
- Pre-marital property
We have more than 30 years of experience and an intricate understanding of courtroom procedures. Our knowledge, skill and litigation techniques allow us to take your case to trial and fight on your behalf when needed.
