Common Issues in High Net Worth Divorces
High net worth divorces often involve unique challenges that can complicate the settlement process.
Some of the most common issues include:
- Asset Valuation: Determining the accurate value of complex assets such as businesses or investments can be contentious and requires expert appraisal.
- Hidden Assets: One spouse may attempt to conceal assets to diminish their share, necessitating thorough forensic accounting.
- Tax Implications: The division of assets can have significant tax consequences, which need to be carefully considered to avoid unexpected liabilities.
- Spousal Support: Calculating appropriate alimony payments can be difficult, especially when considering the standard of living established during the marriage.
- Child Custody and Support: Wealth may influence custody arrangements and child support obligations, affecting the dynamics of parental responsibilities.
- Real Estate Division: The division of properties, especially jointly owned vacation homes or investment properties, presents challenges in valuation and marketability.
A high net worth divorce attorney can navigate these complex issues. With their expertise, they can properly assess and value assets, ensuring that all properties and financial resources are accounted for and equitably divided. They play a vital part in uncovering hidden assets through investigative methods and can collaborate with financial experts to address tax concerns. By understanding both the legal and financial intricacies of high net worth divorces, an experienced attorney can advocate effectively for their client's interests, guiding them towards a fair and just resolution.
How Is Property Division Determined?
In a high net worth case, there is no standard resolution or formula that can easily be applied. If a prenuptial was in place, this could be helpful, but some of these agreements have been successfully contested in high net worth divorce cases. It could not be more important to have legal representation that has extensive litigation experience, has access to respected professional resources to present evidence to support the case, and an exceptional ability to negotiate terms that are reasonable.
Other cases could require a full analysis of the assets of each party to determine if any support is needed. The court may or may not award support; when both parties in the divorce own many assets, this matter will require resolution. The ability to present a compelling case is the art of a trial attorney.
This includes careful preparation, the presentation of professional experts, and an ability to present the case in a compelling manner to the court. This is possibly the most significant factor in the final outcome in a high net worth contested divorce. The same can be said about negotiated settlements. It takes real skill to persuade the opposing attorney that a specific compromise is in the best interests of his or her client.

Ryan was a trusted adviser throughout the course of my legal issues. I was unfamiliar with legal proceedings and Ryan was able to explain to me my legal situation, and risks associated with various defenses and decisions I had to make. He took the time to explain all the scenarios to my satisfaction which gave me piece of mind and comfort. Ryan was also very responsive through various forms of communications (phone, email, text) which made keeping in contact convenient throughout the process. Ryan showed up on time (early in fact) to various appointments and appeared to handle relationship building effectively with opposing attorneys and the prosecutor. At the end of the day, I was very satisfied with the work done by Ryan as the outcome of my legal matter was better than I had expected and kept my reputation in tact, which undoubtedly will help me pursue my future career/professional ambitions.- Former Client

Mr. Gilbert has made my case easy and clear to understand without all the legal jargon. He took time to help me clearly understand my case and kept me updated with all occurrences. Also, the case had been postponed and he waited alongside and had a friendly chat at the nearby Starbucks and besides giving me a great case result, he made me feel as if I had someone by my side. Patient, honest, and soft spoken, Ryan is not someone else whom just told me what to do and I just say yes too, like previous attorneys I had. I will always suggest and use Ryan Gilbert as my attorney.- Former Client
