Complex Divorce Cases Require Highly Qualified Representation

Spouses in a high net worth divorce typically own extensive real estate, investment accounts, and personal collections; however, the value of these assets is just one aspect that makes this type of case challenging. The title and structuring of the assets, especially ownership interests in a business, add extra complexity. The legal implications for dividing property in the marital estate make turn a typical Michigan dissolution of marriage matter into a highly convoluted case. Mistakes are common and costly if you don’t have a skilled legal professional to navigate the process.

The Iafrate & Salassa, P.C. legal team represents many high net worth clients in divorce cases, with meticulous attention to detail to ensure there are no loose ends or legal issues that can cause problems in the future. We can advise you on:

• Settlement Negotiations: You may think there’s no possibility of agreeing with your spouse on dividing marital property, but opportunities open up when you hire an attorney that understands how the law applies to your rights. A lawyer can assist with eliminating the emotion and making way for compromise, while still looking out for your interests.
• Asset Division in Court: If you and your spouse cannot reach an agreement, a court will make a determination on distributing marital property. Our lawyers effectively represent you in court by presenting critical evidence and arguments to a judge to support your side of the dispute.
• Concealing Assets: In high asset divorce cases, one spouse may be tempted to hide property to avoid having it considered in property distribution. Alternatively, a spouse may even transfer ownership to another person, taking away from the spouse receiving alimony. In these unfortunate situations, you need a skilled attorney with mastery of the legal tools to find these assets.
