Strategic Guidance in High-Asset Divorce

For individuals facing divorce involving substantial assets, closely-held businesses, or complex financial portfolios, the stakes are exceptionally high. Sarah Chen specializes in dismantling the complexity, providing clear, decisive legal strategy focused on long-term financial security.

Why Expert Financial Representation is Non-Negotiable

A common mistake is assuming equal division means fair division. Sarah ensures that all assets are properly identified and valued, preventing costly omissions and ensuring transparent accounting.

  • Business Valuation: We engage forensic accountants to accurately value marital business interests.
  • Asset Tracing: Rigorous tracking of separate and commingled property to protect pre-marital wealth.
  • Executive Compensation: Expertise in handling stock options, restricted stock units (RSUs), and deferred compensation packages.

Protecting Your Post-Divorce Financial Future

Beyond immediate settlement, our goal is to establish a viable financial foundation for the future. Sarah's guidance ensures that support arrangements and property division are structured for maximum tax efficiency and stability.

"A well-prepared client is a protected client. My priority is translating complex financial documentation into a clear roadmap for your success, eliminating the guesswork and the expensive mistakes that follow."

Our Process for Complex Cases

  1. Detailed Discovery: Comprehensive review of all financial documents and engaging necessary expert witnesses (CPAs, appraisers).
  2. Strategic Negotiation: Utilizing mediation and collaborative techniques to reach favorable settlements efficiently.
  3. Prepared Litigation: Ready to aggressively protect client interests in court if a fair settlement cannot be reached.

We serve clients across all complex family law matters, ensuring confidence and clarity at every step.
