High Asset Family Law Proceedings - Chatswood Family Lawyers
CHATSWOOD HIGH ASSET FAMILY LAW & DIVORCE LAWYER
Our Chatswood Family Lawyers Will Help You Get Through Your Complex High Net Worth Divorce
High asset divorces are particularly difficult for all parties involved and require more time and care than an average family law matter.
In a high-asset divorce, the family lawyer will need to conduct a thorough investigation so as to gain an accurate picture of the marital property. He or she will then need to hire outside professionals, including real estate appraisers, forensic accountants, and financial planners, to glean insight as to the true value of the assets.
The Family Law Act provides the legal framework governing property settlements and rights for de facto couples, ensuring they have similar rights to married couples. This act is particularly relevant in high asset divorces as it influences the division of assets, including business interests, during divorce or separation proceedings.
If you and your spouse have considerable assets, consult with an experienced Chatswood Family Lawyer. The lawyers at Chatswood Family Lawyers will provide unwavering legal support throughout the duration of the divorce process and fight to protect your legal and financial interests. It is crucial to seek legal advice to navigate the complexities of high asset divorces effectively.
WE ENLIST THE EXPERTISE OF FINANCIAL PROFESSIONALS
When you work with the legal team at Chatswood Family Lawyers, you will receive the help of more than just your lawyer – you will have the advice and support of a number of financial experts who will aid in the valuation of your marital assets and ensure that your financial resources are safeguarded.
If you suspect that your spouse has hidden assets, a forensic accountant can trace investments and withdrawals and locate them. A financial planner can provide a thorough analysis of you and your spouse’s assets and liabilities so that the judge will have a clear picture of each of your financial standing.
It is crucial to identify and manage the asset pool, which includes business interests, family trusts, and superannuation, to ensure equitable distribution between the parties involved.
In high asset family law matters, the judge will need a valuation of all marital property, including assets such as:
- Pensions and retirement accounts;
- Homes and other real estate;
- Family businesses and professional practices;
- Personal belongings (jewellery, artwork, designer goods);
- Vehicles; and
- Brokerage accounts, to name just a few.
Complete and honest disclosure of all relevant financial documents is essential to promote transparency and facilitate agreement during the legal proceedings.
A family lawyer who has experience in dealing with high asset cases can assist you in evaluating your case and advise you on what to do next to advance your best interests.
