Knowledgeable Legal Guidance In Your Corner
High-asset divorces come with their own set of challenges because, by nature, there is much more at stake. Any divorce process can be problematic and complex, but high-asset divorces often involve a substantial amount of properties, possessions, legal contracts, investments, and other essential concerns that require special attention. Because of these additional needs, a high-asset divorce can be more expensive, time-consuming, and risky. If you or your spouse has a high number of assets and you are interested in pursuing a divorce, it is absolutely crucial to explore your legal options as soon as possible.

Oregon Law & Property Division
Each state in the U.S. handles property division a bit differently, and in Oregon, we abide by equitable distribution. As a rule, equitable distribution dictates that assets will be divided in a way that is fair, though not necessarily “equal.” In other words, the court will assess the marital property and divide those assets between spouses in a way that is equitable, though it may not be 50/50, so to speak.
This aspect of the divorce process can be the most challenging, time-consuming phase, in part because it can be very challenging to get both parties to agree to the terms of the division. Likewise, with high-asset divorces, it is sometimes necessary to hire additional resources to find hidden assets, assess valuable properties and possessions, and value business interests.
If you are beginning a high-asset divorce, our firm can help with the following:
- Designating assets as either marital or “separate” property
- Handling Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO) for retirement plans
- Identifying assets hidden by the other party
- Valuing high-value possessions, investments, business interests, properties, etc.
