Property Division
The experienced divorce attorneys of Weiler & Associates, Inc. have led hundreds of women and men through the necessary process of property division, and you can rely on us to secure your fair share. Illinois law does not demand a 50/50 division of property but rather an equitable division that takes into consideration a long list of factors. We first apply forensic accounting methods to separate out non-marital assets that should remain your sole property. We then compile a comprehensive assessment of all shared marital property and identify every factor in your favor that we can press during settlement negotiations. At all times, we work toward your specific goals, such as to retain the family home or other specific assets.
High Asset and High Income Complex Divorce
Without experienced legal guidance, high-income families with large asset bases are at risk for severe financial losses and tax consequences in a divorce. In our tightly-focused practice of family and divorce law, Weiler & Associates, Inc. has successfully guided many business owners, executives, and high-earning professionals through the exhaustive and oft-exhausting process of asset documentation, appraisal, and division. We handle a wide range of complex divorces involving prenuptial agreements, multi-partnered family businesses, corporations, real estate holdings, multiple investment and retirement accounts, and inheritances. We also understand the unique needs and challenges of high net worth families with children and stay-at-home parents.
Business Owner Concerns in Divorce
Many concerns can arise in a divorce that involves a family business, professional practice, or ownership interest in a closely-held corporation. The business can be put under significant strain by the opposing forces of the necessity to divide property and the importance of protecting the business's earnings to fund marital debt pay-off, child support, and other needs. Regardless of whether the business is deemed a marital or non-marital asset, its fair market value must be determined and that valuation will impact all aspects of the divorce settlement. There is also the risk of a spouse using the business to conceal assets. The dedicated attorneys of Weiler & Associates, Inc. will help you see the big picture, anticipating and addressing all of your concerns.
