Michigan Divorce and Marital Asset Protection Attorneys
Divorce is a complicated process that is best handled by a knowledgeable attorney. High-asset divorces are even more complex and deserve the attention of a lawyer that can review the entire case and advocate for your rights to property, alimony or custody whenever necessary. At the Ann Arbor law firm of Faupel, Fraser & Fessler, our lawyers are highly experienced at handling simple to complex divorces.
When a large marital estate is subject to division in the course of a divorce, it is important that you enlist the assistance of an attorney that has a full understanding of the way in which complex marital property division is handled. These types of estates come with their own unique issues, such as tax complications, that need to be thoroughly addressed to minimize future conflict.
Asset and Property Division
A focal point in a high-asset divorce is the division of the marital assets and property. Our firm concentrates on asset protection and pursuing the assets to which you are entitled. We handle the division of a range of types of property and accounts, including:
- Pensions
- Stocks
- Bonds
- 410K, IRA and other retirement accounts
- Primary homes
- Vacation homes
- Real estate and property
- Vehicles
- Personal possessions
Spousal Support
Spousal support (also known as alimony) is often awarded in high-asset divorce cases. A member of our firm can meet with you to determine if you may qualify for spousal support. We can then seek the ordering of payments or attempt to block them, depending on your side in the case.
When dealing with a high-asset divorce, we often enlist the services of an accountant, forensic economic expert or another type of expert that can help us sort out which assets are subject to division. This expert can also assist in determining debt division, since debts that are accumulated throughout the course of the marriage are also subject to equal division between the parties. In addition, we utilize the assistance to experts in order to determine the correct home equity or business valuation. This helps us better advocate for the appropriate distribution of these types of assets.
- We can also handle the investigation of your spouse in order to determine if there are any hidden assets or bank accounts.
