Orange County and Los Angeles High Net Worth Divorce Lawyers
Divorces in which spouses have a high net worth are often highly contentious. When more assets are involved or when one or both spouses have a high net worth, many divorce-related legal matters can become difficult to settle.
At the Santa Monica and Newport Beach law offices of Hammers & Baltazar Family Law, we represent clients facing divorce. We work hard to protect their income and assets and to work towards a settlement that keeps their personal and financial needs in mind.
Property division in a high net worth divorce
It is necessary to determine what property is owned jointly and what property is owned individually by each spouse. This can be a difficult task, especially if separate property has commingled with community property.
If a business is owned individually or by both spouses, it is necessary to determine the value of the business and each spouse's share of it. If you are the owner of a business or a professional practice, we will work to limit your financial exposure and protect your business assets.
Our family law attorneys are experts in California family law and the divorce process. We can explain your legal options regarding property and asset division, and help you protect and ensure your asset rights in divorce. We can help you divide your financial and business assets in divorce, including:
- Investments
- 401(k) plans
- Pensions
- Real estate
- Debts
As a law firm that focuses 100 percent on family law, we will put our skills and experience to work for you in complex and high asset property division matters.
