A divorce is emotionally draining for most families and particularly challenging for high-net-worth individuals. An experienced family attorney is needed to make sure the divorce decree reflects a fair division of marital assets and property.
At the law firm of Michael P. Fleming & Associates, P.C., we are prepared to account for any hidden assets and evaluate business valuation in high-net-worth divorces. Contact our law firm today for vigorous legal representation in Houston, Dallas, and throughout Texas.
Equitable Distribution of Marital Assets
In Texas, assets acquired or increased during the marriage must be distributed equitably between the spouses. However, assets acquired before getting married or handled separately from marital assets are not subject to an equitable distribution.
Our law firm’s family law attorneys consult forensic accountants, appraisers, and other experts to evaluate assets involved in a high-net-worth divorce, such as
- Vacation homes
- Retirement plans
- Business assets
- Boats and planes
- Stocks and investments
We work with a team of financial experts and investigators to trace how assets were handled during the marriage. For example, if your spouses’ inheritance was comingled with the rest of your joint assets, we will advocate to help you gain an equitable distribution of the inheritance. We also fight hard to protect assets that were purchased before getting married or handled separately from your marital property.
