What Is Considered High Net Worth?
While what makes a person wealthy varies depending on where you live, high net worth is generally defined as having $1 million or more in liquid assets. Valuable assets that couples may have to consider in a high net worth divorce include:
- Real estate, including the couple’s marital residence, vacation homes and any real estate investments that either has made during the marriage
- Closely held businesses or interest in a company
- Stocks, bonds, stock options and other investments
- Retirement benefits, including retirement savings, a 401(k) plan, an IRA or a pension plan
- Vehicles, including luxury cars, boats or planes
- Valuable assets like fine art, fine jewelry or collectibles
In order to divide your property, you must also fully understand the value of these and other possessions. Ms. Furubotten builds on her own experience by enlisting experienced appraisers and other experts so that you can make sound decisions about your finances.
Is Your Spouse Hiding Assets?
Fair division of your property depends on identifying all of the assets that fall into the category of community property. Unfortunately, some people put their own interests before the law and attempt to hide valuable assets to keep them from being divided by the court.
When you work with Furubotten Law, Denise can help you take steps to protect your property rights during the divorce process. From identifying warning signs of hidden assets to tracking down that property and fighting for you in court, she and her team are prepared to use decades of experience and the insight of financial experts to support your interests.
