What is a high net worth divorce?
A divorce in which the assets of either one or both parties exceed financial needs is considered a high net worth divorce. A high-value divorce takes into account assets of multiple forms, including property, business shares and overseas assets. Generally, the higher the values involved, the more complex the divorce can become.
What assets are involved in a high-value divorce?
During a high-value divorce, it’s a legal obligation for both parties to disclose all of their financial assets so that they can be considered for settlement.
These assets include:
● Business shares
● Trusts
● Property
● Pensions
● Investments
● Inherited wealth
● Offshore assets
Protecting yourself from future financial claims
To protect yourself from future financial claims from your ex-partner, it’s crucial that you are completely honest about your financial assets and circumstances during the divorce proceedings.
If you withhold financial information that later comes to light, making the other party feel that the settlement was unfair, they can make a new claim against your assets.
Businesses in a high net worth divorce
Your business assets are likely to be a priority to both you and your partner during a divorce and can become a very complex manner. During divorce proceedings, it is preferable for both the value and employees of the business to be unaffected, which means that if you own or run the business, you’ll likely retain it following the divorce.
Hidden assets in high-value divorces
Complete financial transparency is expected of both parties during the divorce proceedings. If you or your partner believe that the other party is not being open and honest about their financial situation, you can review their finances.
Generally, if you withhold any financial information during proceedings, it is not looked upon favourably. If you successfully hide any assets throughout the divorce, it’s possible that your partner can make a later claim if new information comes to light.
