Inclusive And Cost-Effective Advocacy For High-Asset Divorce

Divorce is emotionally and financially strenuous enough. Having various complex assets to untangle as well can add even more complications to your situation.

The lawyers at NextLevel Law, P.C. by Daniel R. Hernandez, Esq., thoroughly understand the implications and unique challenges of a high-asset divorce and can help you promote your goals and interests no matter what type of marriage you have. We can also thoroughly account for every detail surrounding your marital assets.

The Assets That Can Complicate High-Asset Divorces

As you can’t divide all these assets the same way, having a lawyer on your side who knows how to evaluate and negotiate the division of these assets effectively can make a significant difference. Some of the assets that you may have to split during your divorce include:

• Retirement accounts: To divide retirement accounts, you need a qualified domestic relations order (QDRO). We can help you obtain and complete the appropriate documents to manage these transactions. We can also help you determine the proper amount to split and maneuver any tax challenges you encounter.
• Real estate properties: If you have more than one home, then you may wonder who will keep what and how much equity you and your ex-spouse will get. Our attorneys can collaborate with professional appraisers to discover the worth of each property, determine if Illinois law considers any of them marital property and fight for your share of equity based on how the properties get divided.
• Business assets: Business assets can include anything from profits, business equipment, the value of your business property or the value of your business as a whole. We can help you protect your interests, regardless of whether you own a business. If you do, we can collaborate with professionals to determine a fair valuation of your business and find various ways to shield your most valuable business assets from your divorce. If you don’t, we can help you determine how much value your spouse’s business accumulated during your marriage and advocate for your share.
• Art collections: If you and your spouse had art in your home, then our team can help you determine whether those art pieces are considered marital property and whether they’re subject to Illinois equitable distribution laws.
• Hidden assets: Sometimes, one spouse in a high-asset divorce will hide assets in other places in hopes that the other won’t get to them. If your spouse hides things like cryptocurrencies, investment accounts, cash or valuable luxury goods, we will thoroughly investigate those hidden assets and determine whether they can be subject to division.
