San Diego High Asset Divorce

As San Diego divorce attorneys, we recognize there is generally a greater amount of property and assets involved in a high asset divorce. Agreement on the characterization, value and how the property is to be divided can be extremely challenging and contentious. Stock portfolios, bank accounts, real estate investment properties, business ownership, pensions, and 401k retirement funds can contribute to the complexity in settling or litigating a high asset divorce case in California.

High asset divorce cases are particularly unique because they often require the divorce attorney to have viable experience working with other professionals such as CPAs, forensic accountants, and business and home appraisers in order to protect a client's interests and rights.

Although every divorce is unique, there are sources of conflict common to many of the high asset divorce cases our San Diego divorce attorneys routinely handle. Their experience includes disputes involving:

• Prenuptial agreements
• Businesses and professional practices, including the value of these assets and the date of determining that value
• Business valuation methods
• Hidden assets
• Real estate appraisals, both for the actual value of the property and in many cases the Fair Market rental value of the real property
• Investment accounts, including the "tax effect" of division and an imputation of a higher return on investment in the case of mismanaged assets
• Employee benefits (stock options, deferred compensation, etc.), including the use of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO) for the division of retirement plans
• Property Division (La Jolla, Downtown, Del Mar, Encinitas, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, Carlsbad, etc.)
• Spousal support/alimony, including the unique issues tied to self-employment compensation issues
•
