If you’re going through a divorce and there are major assets on the line, this isn’t the time to wing it. Whether you’re protecting a business, real estate portfolio, retirement accounts, or family wealth, a high asset divorce is all about strategy. At Brandi Wolfe Law, we help clients untangle complex financial lives while protecting what they’ve built.
Dividing property in a high net worth divorce isn’t just a numbers game. If you’re not careful, you could walk away with less than you’re entitled to while your spouse walks away with more than they should. We make sure every asset is accounted for and that you’re not pressured into an unfair deal just to get it over with.
What Counts as a High Net Worth Divorce?
Any divorce involving substantial assets, complex property structures, or significant income disparity may be considered a high net worth case. Common factors include:
- Multiple real estate holdings
- Business ownership or partnerships
- High-value retirement and investment accounts
- Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements
- Trusts, stock options, or deferred compensation
- Disputes over separate versus community property
We work with financial advisors, forensic accountants, and valuation experts when necessary to make sure everything is properly accounted for and nothing gets swept under the rug.
We Don’t Let the Other Side Hide the Ball
High net worth divorces often involve more than just big numbers. They come with high stakes, financial secrecy, and sometimes gamesmanship. We’ve seen it all.
We help clients:
- Track down hidden assets or suspicious transfers
- Analyze business income to get a true picture of value
- Enforce or challenge prenuptial agreements
- Negotiate smart buyouts that keep wealth intact
- Protect retirement savings from unnecessary division
If your spouse is already working with an aggressive attorney or trying to pressure you into a fast settlement, it’s time to get someone who knows how to push back.
What Happens to the House, the Business, the Retirement?
Texas is a community property state, but that doesn’t mean everything is divided down the middle. Judges can consider fault in the marriage, earning capacity, and financial contributions when dividing property.
We look at everything, including:
- Whether certain assets were owned before marriage
- Whether you invested separate funds into marital property
- Whether your spouse is hiding income or underreporting value
We also build smart plans around long-term tax impact and financial stability after divorce. If you’ve spent years building something, we’ll fight to protect it.
