Complex Property Division

Complex Property Division Problems in Texas Divorce

At the Plano law firm of Laurence A. DePlaza, P.C., our commitment to the preparation of community property division problems in complex or high net-worth divorce cases can present a significant advantage in the resolution of such disputes. To learn more our ability to protect and advance your interests in contested asset distribution matters, please contact us to schedule a confidential consultation.

Ideally, we are able to take the initiative for our clients through the identification of asset values and potential points of conflict during the divorce planning process prior to filing the petition. If you're responding to a divorce petition, however, you might not have had the opportunity to get a good understanding of your rights and responsibilities with respect to marital property before you were served with the papers. Regardless of the degree of preparation devoted to your case, our lawyers can advise you and protect your position in complex property division issues, including:

  • Proper characterization of particular assets as marital or separate property
  • Enforcing or challenging the terms of a prenuptial agreement
  • Checking the accuracy of your spouse's income and asset disclosures
  • Making sure that property such as family business assets, interests in closely held corporations, real estate investments, or collectibles is properly characterized and valued
  • Tracing and recovering marital property that your spouse concealed, unlawfully transferred, or failed to disclose

The resolution of complex property division matters can be highly technical, and in divorces involving substantial assets, the most divisive and emotionally charged part of the case. Our attorneys work closely with experts from many different fields — real estate, forensic accounting, business valuation, asset tracing, tax planning, and even auction houses — so that your position is supported by the most credible and persuasive evidence available.

For experienced and dependable client service on any community property characterization issue or complex property division problem in the Dallas-Ft. Worth Metroplex, contact an AV-rated* family law attorney at the office of Laurence A. DePlaza in Plano.
