Palatine Complex Divorce Attorney

A high-asset or complex divorce may encompass issues such as:

Spousal Maintenance

Also known as alimony or spousal support, spousal maintenance is nearly always an issue in a high-asset divorce. All factors, such as the age of the parties, monetary contribution to the marriage, and length of the marriage, among others, must be considered when the amount of spousal maintenance and alimony is being determined.

Property Division

Real estate, bank accounts, retirement accounts, personal property, vacation homes, and cars are just some of the types of property that are divided according to the law of equitable distribution in Illinois. This means that all assets are divided equally and fairly, but not necessarily 50-50 between the parties.

Business Valuation

High-asset divorces often involve closely held or family businesses. In order to ensure that assets are properly divided between the two parties, a thorough business evaluation must take place. We enlist the assistance of business valuation experts, forensic accountants and other professionals whenever necessary to see that the proper value of the business is reached.

Offshore Accounts and Hidden Assets

When there are large amounts of money at stake in a divorce, there may be numerous accounts in which assets are held. If a spouse has an offshore account, a foreign account, or is suspected of hiding assets, our firm can take action to ensure that all documentation is provided and money is accounted for.

Debt Division

Some high-dollar divorces also involve numerous debts. Marital debts, such as medical bill debt and credit card debt, are divided according to the law of equitable distribution in order to prevent one party from being responsible for an unequal amount of the debt.
