Our lawyers have experience representing clients with extensive asset portfolios including property such as:
- High-value real estate-which may be undervalued in today's real estate market
- Real estate beyond the marital home
- Rental properties
- Investments and businesses
- Stocks and bonds
- Stock options
- Retirement accounts
- Assets such as time shares
- Multiple bank accounts and other assets such as gold
- Antiques, jewelry and firearms
- Animals of value, such as horses or expensive household pets (dog, cat or parrot, for example)
- Life insurance with cash surrender value accumulated
- Benefits stemming from employment of either or both spouses
Discover and Disclose All Assets
Discuss topics such as business valuation or valuation of a professional practice (medical clinic, law practice or accounting office) with a knowledgeable attorney. It may be in your best interests to involve forensic evaluations in the discovery process of your divorce: real estate appraisals, accountants and private investigators to trace assets such as offshore accounts. Macht, Brenizer & Gingold, P.C., is prepared to advise and guide you through the process of asset division and asset protection in a divorce.
Keep Assets in the Family
Perhaps you and your spouse are in agreement and wish to be as fair to each other as you can be-but you wish for advice on property distribution that will be most advantageous with regard to taxes. Our attorneys can advise you on how best to determine how to legally keep as much of your marital assets in the hands of you and your spouse, rather than in the hands of the IRS or your lawyers.
