What is a High-Asset Divorce?
While divorce laws and basic principles are the same no matter who you are or how much wealth you have accumulated, the stakes are much higher in a high-asset divorce. While it’s common for most divorcing couples to have assets such as vehicles and the family home, high-asset divorces involve assets with significantly higher value and complexity, making them difficult to divide.
High-asset divorces can include those involving:
- Large Real Estate Holdings: Primary residences, vacation homes, commercial real estate, rental properties, and land investments.
- High-End or Luxury Vehicles: Sports cars, boats, motorcycles, recreational vehicles, and classic car collections.
- Investment Portfolios: Investment portfolios comprising stocks, bonds, hedge funds, mutual funds, and other financial instruments.
- Complex Income Structures: Diverse streams of income, such as bonuses, stock options, and deferred compensation.
- Retirement Accounts and Pensions: Accumulated retirement savings, such as those in 401(k) plans, IRAs, pensions, and deferred compensation.
- Valuables and Luxury Assets: Jewelry, art collections, yachts, and other valuable assets.
- Business Interests: Ownership stakes in businesses, partnerships, or professional practices.
- Intellectual Property Rights: Royalties, literary rights, patents, copyrights, and trademarks.
