High-Net-Worth Divorce Attorney in Broward and Miami-Dade County
What is a High Net Worth Divorce?
High-Net-Worth Divorces
While all couples face challenges when ending a marriage, none are as complex as those associated with a high-net-worth divorce. You need a highly dedicated legal and financial team to locate, value, and categorize tangible and intangible assets. These include international or hidden assets that can be challenging to uncover. At the same time, you need a legal advocate focused on protecting your interests and financial position.
Our law firm works directly with forensic experts to trace, track, and uncover assets. At the same time, we offer concierge-level client services to cater to busy professionals that have little free time to settle matters related to divorce.
A simple mistake can cost you millions of dollars during a divorce, so choosing the proper representation is vital. With more than 60 years of combined experience, the high-net-worth attorneys at our firm will tirelessly protect you while navigating through the process.

Forensic Accountants And High-net-worth Divorces
Forensic accountants play a vital role in high-net-worth divorces. While some firms only provide legal services, we work directly with forensic accountants to support our clients. These professionals can help in numerous ways during the divorce. They can value the business, uncover hidden assets, and track assets.
Finally, a forensic accountant will assist with structuring the settlement to minimize the tax consequences. Without the proper structure, you could end up paying well more than your fair share of local, federal, and state taxes. Contact our law firm today to learn more about how our high-net-worth divorce attorney utilizes forensic accountants.
Alimony And High-net-worth Divorces
Both spouses in a high-net-worth marriage are accustomed to a certain lifestyle that they would like to continue after the marriage ends. Sometimes, spousal support is outlined in a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement. However, the agreement might not be valid, or there might not be one in place at all. In these instances, your high-net-worth-divorce attorney can discuss options for spousal support for the dependent spouse.
Alimony can be paid in a lump sum or monthly payments. Additionally, alimony might be awarded for a set period of time, or it could be permanent if you were married for 17 years or longer.
Our firm helps people on both sides of this issue. Contact us today to discuss spousal support and other issues related to your high-net-worth divorce.
“The Florida Legislature passed sweeping legislation in March 2022, which will have a drastic effect on some of the information in this article. If the Governor signs the bill, this article will be modified accordingly.”
Now is the time to consult with an attorney to understand how these changes may affect your situation.
Mediation
High-net-worth divorces can get quite contentious, but there are options outside of litigating it in court. In fact, many high-net-worth couples benefit from mediation. Our firm has certified mediators that can help you create an agreement with your spouse. We can also represent you during mediation if you choose a different certified mediator. In either case, the goal will be to help you protect your position while settling the divorce.
Marital Waste
It is not unusual for one spouse to start burning through assets when the marriage begins crumbling apart. Additionally, one spouse might transfer assets to hide them from experts during the divorce proceedings. Our high-net-worth divorce attorney can search for signs of marital waste. If we find evidence, our firm can use legal strategies to prevent it from continuing while recovering what you have lost. Contact us today so we can put a stop to any wasteful spending.
