Identifying, Valuing and Dividing Marital Property

During the divorce process, marital property must be identified and valued. Through negotiation or a court judgment, it must be then divided on some basis. This division will be made on an “equitable” basis, not necessarily on an equal basis.

Our attorneys understand how to identify separate property, as well as how to trace the transformation of separate property into marital property, so as to maximize the division of property for our clients.

Complex Property Division

Our firm has experience in property division cases involving large marital estates, ownership of businesses, ownership of professional practices and other complex financial matters. When needed, we can work with your accountant or other accountants, financial analysts or business valuation specialists to identify key issues. We will achieve the best possible result for you.
