Working With Experts to Strengthen Your Case
Our firm works closely with a number of financial experts throughout San Diego County to help your case. Their expertise is beneficial to assist the client and the law firm in the analysis of stock options, property appraisals, tax consequences, spousal support buyouts, and division of pension, profit sharing, and retirement plans. Using the skills and knowledge of these experts as well as our own experience, we accomplish our goal of achieving favorable outcomes for you.
Tax Consequences of Dividing Assets
The division of assets is more than deciding who gets what. It is also about understanding the consequences of the property division agreement. Although our firm does not provide tax advice, we will discuss generally recognized family law tax concepts and work with you, your CPA and/or financial adviser to address tax issues that may arise in the course of the division of marital assets. We are strong advocates for creating property division agreements that benefit our clients as much as possible.
