High Net Worth Divorce FAQs

What qualifies as a high asset divorce?

A high asset divorce typically involves significant marital assets such as business interests, multiple properties, investment portfolios, retirement accounts, luxury items, or complex financial holdings. These divorces require detailed financial analysis and strategic planning.

Why does a high asset divorce require a specialized attorney?

High net worth divorces involve complex property valuations, tax implications, and greater risk of disputes. At Milstein Siegel, our attorneys work with financial experts and forensic accountants to ensure accurate valuations, locate hidden assets, and protect your financial interests.

How is property divided in a high asset divorce?

Maryland follows equitable distribution, which means assets are divided fairly, not necessarily equally. This includes real estate, investments, business interests, pensions, stock options, and inherited or gifted property when applicable. Proper classification and valuation are essential.

Can Milstein Siegel help protect my business during divorce?

Yes. We help business owners and professionals safeguard their companies through valuations, structured settlements, and litigation if necessary. We work to minimize disruption to your business while protecting your ownership interest and future income.

What financial experts do you work with in high asset divorce cases?

We regularly work with forensic accountants, tax advisors, property appraisers, and business valuation experts to uncover, evaluate, and present financial data to support your divorce strategy and settlement goals.

What if my spouse is hiding assets?

Our attorneys have experience identifying hidden income and assets through financial disclosures, subpoenas, forensic accounting, and discovery tactics. We aggressively pursue full disclosure and work to ensure fair and transparent asset division.

How are retirement accounts divided?/summary>

Retirement assets such as pensions, 401(k)s, and IRAs are typically subject to division. We work with economists and financial advisors to ensure accurate valuations and handle Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDROs) where appropriate.

Does child support or alimony work differently in high asset divorces?

While the basic structure remains the same, child support and alimony in high asset cases often involve greater scrutiny, especially when discretionary income, business earnings, or discrepancies in lifestyle are involved. We customize strategies based on income, lifestyle, and future needs.

Can high asset divorces be resolved through mediation?

Yes. Many are resolved through negotiation or mediation to preserve privacy and control over the outcome. That said, we are fully prepared to litigate when a fair agreement is not possible.

Why choose Milstein Siegel for my high net worth divorce case?

We have over 20 years of experience handling complex, high-stakes divorces. Our attorneys understand the needs of business owners, executives, and professionals and offer comprehensive strategy, expert resources, and tough advocacy in and out of court.
