Property Valuation • Business Valuation • Asset Division

After child custody issues, property division tends to be the most intractable issue associated with divorce. Unless fault can be determined in a divorce dispute, marital property is typically equally divided between the two parties.

The difficulty in dividing marital property is twofold; emotional and asset valuations. Often disputes arise over the emotional value of particular items. These issues are more difficult to resolve than financial matters. Professional accountants and real estate evaluators can examine financial records and determine the values of homes, cars, retirement accounts, pensions, and businesses. The emotional attachment to belongings is much more difficult to calculate.
