Preparing for a High Net Worth Divorce
Disclosure is the first substantial step in any divorce process. Each party is required to provide the other with all material facts and information regarding all assets, debts, income, and expenses. In a high net worth divorce, the disclosure process can be lengthy and complex. In preparing for a high asset divorce, you may consider reaching out to financial professionals such as business advisors, CPAs, financial advisors, investment teams, real estate professionals, family estate planning attorneys and anyone else who might have pertinent information or documentation regarding your estate. Beginning to gather documents and information will give you a head start and help the divorce process move along more quickly and efficiently.
