What Makes High-Net-Worth Divorces Different?
While the divorce laws in Illinois are largely similar regardless of your financial means, spouses with significant assets and high income face some additional challenges. With more on the line, it is imperative that high-net-worth individuals take action to protect their rights and interests. Here are three key things that make high-net-worth divorce cases different:
- Complex Property and Assets: High-net-worth couples often own complex property and assets. These can be more difficult to split up in a divorce. There may be major financial ramifications—from preparing for tax issues to protecting business interests. Additionally, there may be the need to retain experts to assist in determining the value of certain assets. It is crucial that you retain an attorney with the skill and experience to know when to call upon these experts to protect your interests.
- Spousal Support Often an Issue: Spousal support is not guaranteed under Illinois law. However, it is frequently an issue in high-net-worth divorce cases. You need to know your rights and legal obligations in regard to spousal maintenance. Furthermore, the income of a high net-worth spouse is more difficult to ascertain and requires an experienced attorney well versed in tax and business practices.
- Greater Chance of Litigation: Finally, high-net-worth divorces are disproportionately likely to end up in a dispute. As there is a higher risk of litigation, it is crucial that you take immediate action to protect your rights. A proactive approach can make a dramatic difference.
