Knowledgeable in Resolving Complex Property Division Issues
Our family attorneys are capable of handling the most complex of legal issues involved in high net worth cases, including:
Classifying Property
Colorado is an equitable distribution state, so all property acquired during the marriage is generally subject to fair division. Our team can help you classify property as marital or separate and find a fair distribution for marital assets, regardless of which spouse is named on the account or title, including:
- Real estate
- Checking and savings accounts
- 401(k) and IRA accounts
- Stock options and stock-based benefits
- Deferred income arrangements
- Vehicles
- Collections
- Intellectual property
- Business holdings
Additionally, we can help you identify and divide marital debt in a fair manner.
Evaluating Assets
With high asset and net worth divorce cases, determining the value of assets is a critical component to reaching a fair resolution of your case. We are knowledgeable about various types of evaluation methods and have a network of professionals to turn to who can help evaluate your businesses, real estate, and other valuable assets.
Locating Assets
Our team can conduct asset tracing and use discovery tools to locate assets in other states and countries, along with asset transfers that were made in an attempt to hide assets during the divorce process.
Negotiating Settlements
While we are experienced trial attorneys who prepare every case as though it is going to trial, we are also seasoned negotiators who can fight for a fair resolution of your case.
Reviewing Marital Agreements
Many high-net-worth individuals have entered into prenuptial or postnuptial agreements that were designed to help them protect their assets in case of divorce. If you are a party to such an agreement, we can review the terms of the agreement and the circumstances surrounding it and advise you of your legal rights and options.
Resolving Support Issues
When higher incomes are involved, the state’s child support guidelines may not apply. Spousal maintenance may also be a hotly contested issue. We can help identify your long-term goals and see where and how spousal maintenance fits into your plans. It is important to note that property division can have an impact on spousal support. A spouse who receives income producing investments may have less need for support.
Legal Options to Effectively Resolve Issues in a High Net Worth Divorce
At Hogan Omidi, PC, we know that while every divorce case requires a court filing, there are many ways to bring that court case to resolution. For example, you might consider collaborative law in which you, your spouse, and your respective lawyers work together to reach a fair out-of-court settlement. Or, we might suggest using mediation so that a third party neutral can use effective conflict resolution and communication skills to help the parties and their lawyers identify issues in dispute and help resolve them in an amicable manner. If your spouse will not negotiate in good faith, or an impasse is reached for other reasons we will fight aggressively to litigate a favorable outcome in your case.
