Experienced Lawyers for High-Asset Divorce

While all divorce can be complicated, high-value divorces are especially so. You and your spouse may share joint investments, own multiple real estate properties together, or even co-own or individually own a business. Some spouses may have interest in retirement accounts or insurance benefits that are difficult to divide. Tax considerations can be immense in high-value divorce and must not be overlooked.

In Illinois, all marital property must be divided equitably - that is, in a way that is fair to both spouses. Marital property is not only that which is held jointly.
