Carefully Protecting Your Finances & Assets

So many matters are up in the air when you are going through a divorce, including who will get what of your shared property. Whether you have certain assets you would specifically like to protect or you are concerned that your spouse may end up with more than what is fair, we're here to assist you.

During your divorce, you may need to:

• Establish valuations of your assets and property
• Determine who will stay in the family home
• Decide which pieces of real estate should be sold
• Litigate complex property disputes
• Protect assets brought into the marriage as separate property
• Understand tax considerations
• Investigate hidden assets/unreported income

Our Pasadena divorce attorneys can assist you with these potentially contentious matters. Our goal is to relieve your concerns by giving you the information you need to make informed decisions and representing you in court or negotiations whenever necessary.

Guidance for the Valuation of Assets

In divorce, property division is often a contested matter. The assets that were always assumed to belong to both parties must now be separated into two, all while emotions are tense. This transition can be difficult but Team LOOMMS is here to help make matters easier. For couples with significant or complex assets, asset valuation is often necessary. Our attorneys work with experts in the field – such as forensic accountants, appraisers, and actuaries – to properly appraise your assets and ensure that property is divided accordingly.
