Marietta High-Net-Worth Divorce Attorney
When significant or complex assets are on the table, the details matter enormously. We protect your interests — and your privacy — with rigor and discretion.
Valuing complex assets correctly
Business interests, stock options and executive compensation, investment and retirement accounts, real estate, and collectibles all require careful, accurate valuation. We bring in the right experts — forensic accountants, business valuators, appraisers, and tax specialists — so nothing is under- or over-valued.
Marital vs. separate — and tracing
What you owned before the marriage or received by gift or inheritance is generally separate, but appreciation and commingling during the marriage can make assets divisible. We trace assets carefully and work to uncover hidden or undisclosed property.
Protecting your business
A business built or grown during the marriage is typically marital. Division can be handled through a buyout, an offset against other assets, or structured payments — we map the options to protect the enterprise and your interests.
Privacy and tax strategy
High-asset divorces carry real tax consequences and reputational stakes. We work discreetly, build a tax-aware strategy, and pursue an award of attorney's fees where the circumstances justify it.
Questions & answers
High-Net-Worth Divorce: common questions
How is a business divided in a Georgia divorce?
A business built or grown during the marriage is typically marital property. It must be valued, and division can involve a buyout, an offset against other assets, or structured payments — we'll map the options.
Is property I owned before the marriage protected?
Generally yes — premarital property is separate. But appreciation in value during the marriage, or commingling it with marital funds, can make some of it divisible. Careful tracing matters.
Will I have to disclose all of my finances?
Yes — Georgia requires full financial disclosure. We also work to uncover any assets the other side hasn't disclosed.
