Our experienced legal team is here to provide you with the support and representation you need at every stage of your divorce.
Valuing Complex Assets
In Illinois, marital property is divided equitably. In high net worth divorces, however, determining a fair and equitable division can become complicated if there are complex assets and financial interests such as:
- Business ownership interests
- Investment properties, vacation homes and rental properties
- Investments such as stocks, bonds and debentures
- Deferred income, including stock options
- Retirement assets, 401(k)s and pensions
- Antiques, artwork and collectibles
With these types of assets, it is often necessary to consult with an expert. At our firm, we consult with business valuation experts, accountants and appraisers in order to value complex assets. Where a couple’s financial situation is particularly complex, it may be necessary to consult a forensic accountant in order to trace hidden assets and separate marital property from non-marital property.
