New Windsor Assets Division Lawyers
Handling Complex Income and Ownership Questions During Property Division
New York state law divides marital property and debt using the principles of equitable distribution. Although equitable distribution generally means that property is divided equally, many factors are considered. In addition to the length of the marriage, gifts and inheritances, and the distribution of jobs and tasks in the marriage, other complex questions can arise, including:
- The accurate assessment of self-employed spouses' incomes
- The valuation of family businesses and professional associations
Are you concerned with how your self-employment income or that of your spouse will be calculated? Are you unsure of your rights regarding the division of a business?
Contact the Hudson Valley divorce and business division lawyers of Silver, Forrester & Lesser, P.C.
When necessary, we work with financial specialists, including forensic accountants, to:
- Review business and personal financial records
- Locate hidden assets
These experienced litigators can identify assets and debts and can work to trace hidden assets through reverse audits. Once assets and debts are located, we can draw on 45 years of family law and property division legal experience to advocate for your marital property rights. We can work to ensure that all income is accounted for and that separately owned property that grew in value during the marriage is also included in property division calculations.
We are skilled attorneys who can help the courts divide property appropriately according to your interests. For more information, please contact us at 845-764-4757 or 866-687-1338.
