How Are Assets Divided in a High-Net-Worth Divorce in Colorado?
Colorado is an equitable distribution state, meaning marital assets are divided fairly but not necessarily equally. In high-net-worth divorces, this can include real estate, business interests, investments, retirement accounts, and more. Courts consider factors like each spouse's contributions, economic circumstances, validity of prenuptial agreements, and the value of separate property when dividing assets. A skilled attorney ensures your interests are protected during this process.
How Does Child Custody Work in High-Net-Worth Divorces in Colorado?
In Colorado, child custody decisions prioritize the child’s best interests. For high-net-worth families, unique factors like international travel, private schooling, and trust funds may influence parenting plans and child support. Courts evaluate parental fitness, existing relationships, and the child’s needs. We work to secure custody arrangements that protect your parental rights and align with your family’s lifestyle.
How Is Spousal Support Determined in High-Income Divorces in Colorado?
Spousal support, or maintenance, is calculated based on the income and financial needs of both spouses. For high-net-worth divorces, courts may deviate from standard guidelines due to the complexity of assets and income streams. Factors like the marriage duration, lifestyle during the marriage, and earning potential are considered. Our team ensures spousal support agreements are fair and reflective of your financial goals.
