Married couples that share a high net worth often face a vastly more complex and intense divorce proceeding. Their high net worth results in the couple sharing more assets, more property, and more liabilities. These higher stakes make a fair division of belongings incredibly difficult for judges and attorneys handling the case.

Many married couples struggle through years of hardships supporting each other in order to get to the financial place they are now. These divorces can become extremely heated when one spouse does not value the other as an equal, despite enduring great adversity together. In other situations, one spouse marries into the wealth. Even though that spouse may not have a high net worth independently, they have many other nonmonetary forms of value, which can be difficult to assess accurately. Cases like these also often include premarital agreements, which can sometimes only complicate the matter. Some other complexities behind high net worth divorces also include:
“In my experience as a divorce attorney, I’ve witnessed clients find new beginnings and happiness after dissolving their marriages. They can create healthier relationships with themselves and their children, leading to a more fulfilling life overall”
Get in touchThe complexity of high net worth divorces, like all other divorces, increase drastically when children are involved. Because both parents are able to support the children financially, the primary caretaker is not as obvious as in some other divorce cases. When custody is eventually awarded to one or both parents, the amount of child support becomes the next large battle. Due to the high salaries of the parents, almost any amount of child support seems unfair and it proves immensely difficult for judges to deem what a child needs to thrive.
