High Asset Divorce Lawyer | Advice for Difficult Choices
Although many of us take it for granted, personal property quickly adds up into significant sums. Think of your vacation house, automobiles, retirement funds, investments, and bank accounts. Dividing shared property is complicated and involves significant tax implications.
That’s why it is imperative that you have professional representation from an experienced high asset divorce lawyer. We can help you make informed decisions and ensure your interests are addressed in any final settlement.
Community Property or Commingled? Division of Property
For high net worth spouses who divorce in California the court equitably divides assets and debts. If the asset was acquired during the marriage, it is the property of both spouses and therefore it is community property. If it was acquired before or after the date of separation, the property or debt may be found to belong to only one spouse. However, there are exceptions to this rule.
If the asset was acquired outside the marriage, and marital funds were used to acquire or support the asset, it is commingled and therefore it is also community property. However, there are also exceptions to this rule.
Tangible and intangible assets are subject to division when acquired during the marriage. Cash, property, and equipment are considered tangible assets. Intangible assets such as patents, copyrights, trademarks, and businesses in development are community property. In addition, there are exceptions to this rule.
