High-asset multimillion dollar divorce cases are more complex than a regular divorce. High stakes divorces are not ordinary divorces especially when it comes to the division of the assets and property held by the divorcing parties.

In a divorce with a lot of assets, it is important to identify and accurately value all of the property in order to determine how they should be divided. For instance, if a couple jointly owns a business or shares possession of an expensive professional license, these must be carefully assessed in order to determine their value as compared to physical types of property, such as a home or vacation residence. Often these valuations need to be supported by expert testimony other evidence before they will be accepted in court during a divorce proceeding. RS Law can guide you through this process and provide a network of experts and consultants who can ensure that you receive fair value for the assets obtained during a marriage.

A high-asset divorce may involve one or more of the following assets:,

• Valuation of  closely held business
• Value of a professional license or professional practice
• Spousal support (alimony)
• Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO) to divide pensions, 401(k), IRAs, and other retirement funds
• Rental properties, stocks, and other investments
• Second homes, antiques, art, and jewelry
• Hidden assets or transfers to family members
• Dissipation of assets
