Stay In Control Of Your Divorce With The Help Of Seasoned Attorneys

After months or maybe even years of trying to save your marriage, you and your spouse made the decision to part ways.

At Hassett & George, P.C., we know how trying the next few months will be, especially if there are significant assets involved. While we cannot mend physical and emotional scars, we can fight to make you whole financially and protect your rights during the split.

Our attorneys have extensive experience representing individuals from all socioeconomic backgrounds in divorce matters, including individuals with considerable and complex financial assets.

Skilled Negotiators And Litigators In Connecticut Divorces

Our attorneys are detail-oriented, and we know how to navigate even the most complex divorce cases.

Common issues that arise in divorces include:

  • Child custody and support
  • Spousal support
  • Pre- and postnuptial agreements
  • Equitable division of assets and debts
  • Business valuations
  • Forensic accounting

Some divorces can be more time-consuming than others. High net worth divorces, for example, can pose unique challenges that require a lawyer who can invest time in your case.

Special Considerations In High Net Worth Divorces

If you and your spouse have a significant amount of assets, it can be a good idea to hire an attorney who is experienced in high-asset divorces. Our attorneys have decades of experience, and we know what needs to be done in all types of divorces.

One of the greatest differences in high net worth divorces is the use of forensic accounting. It is not unheard of for spouses to try and hide their assets through cryptocurrency, offshore and undisclosed accounts, phantom debts and tax payments, real estate and even stocks. Our team works with forensic accountants to pinpoint any discrepancies in your spouse’s sworn financial statement that may indicate they are trying to sabotage the settlement.

Another key difference relates to child support. Parents may earn an income that exceeds the child support guidelines. Therefore, child support determinations will be made outside of the recommended guidelines.
