Chicago High Net Worth Divorce Attorneys

When it comes to the financial side of any divorce, the first step is to value all of the parties’ assets. The more assets there are, the more expertise and time is required to determine their values, and the more likely that disputes will arise over the value of certain assets. Of course, not all assets are the same. Liquid assets (assets in money markets or bank accounts) may not be as complex as real estate holdings, business interests, complex trusts retirement assets, or other investments. Sometimes couples have assets overseas, and sometimes you simply have no idea where your assets are. The job of our award-winning attorneys is to sort out the assets to ensure you get your appropriate share.

An attorney that is not only experienced in handling divorces, but is also familiar with the complex issues that arise from a complicated asset portfolio, is imperative in high net worth divorces. These divorces often require the delicate use and selection of experts to value businesses, the tax consequences of restructuring assets, and sometimes lifestyle experts. As a high-net worth client, you expect your attorneys to be knowledgeable, responsive, and not just willing, but capable of fighting for your rights and entitlements.
