Strategic Approach to High-Net-Worth Inheritance & Property Division

Often, complex divorces are further strained by concerns regarding the division of marital property and debt. 

For clients with highly valuable property and significant individual and marital investments, the process can be even more complicated and involve many different concerns, such as:

  • Investment assets
  • Family-owned businesses
  • Professional practice interests
  • Multimillion-dollar homes and real estate
  • IRS tax debt and credit card debt

Florida is an equitable distribution state, so marital assets are divided fairly, but not necessarily 50/50. Primary issues include:

  • Identifying and defining separate (nonmarital) property: Any assets brought into a marriage, whether received as a gift or inheritance or obtained through personal injury awards, are considered separate property unless they were commingled with marital assets. This separate, nonmarital property is not subject to equitable distribution.
  • Asset and debt evaluation: When all assets, property, and debts are clearly identified, the hard work begins with the negotiation of an equitable division. Who gets the primary residence? Who assumes the credit card debt? How do the retirement funds get divided? Typically, all assets accumulated during the marriage not otherwise identified as nonmarital are considered marital property.

Gladstone, Weissman, Hirschberg & Schneider, P.A. is here to protect our clients’ marital rights and help them pursue an equitable distribution of all assets and debts.

What Our Clients Have Said

REAL FEEDBACK FROM REAL PEOPLE
  • Detailed Oriented and Thorough

    I highly recommend Abigail Cohen to any client seeking help with a prenuptial agreement.

    Abby was incredibly detail-orientated and thorough. She demonstrated a commanding knowledge of family and Florida prenuptial law. Her work product was first-rate. And she was always incredibly responsive and quick. 

    But what I appreciated most was how kind she was. She went above and beyond to answer all my questions, helped me think through tough decisions, and explained every step of the process. I never felt rushed, and I appreciate that she took the time to get to fully understand my circumstances—to get to know me, my family, my small business, and my priorities. She was always responsive to emails or calls. And she made me feel at ease throughout the process.

    I also enjoyed working with Abby’s team, Kristy and Kristina. They were always very responsive and helpful with technology and scheduling.

    Having worked with many attorneys, I can easily say without reservation that working with Abby was one of the best and most stress-free experiences I have had. I cannot recommend her and her team highly enough.

  • I highly recommend them

    “When faced with divorce, it’s rare to find a firm that you can trust and that personally cares about their clients. Gladstone, Weissman, Hirschberg & Schneider is that firm. During the process I worked with Jeffrey Weissman and Denise Schneider, who were very competent and always made me feel heard and safe. Recently I had a modification and once again, Denise Schneider handled it professionally, was able to help resolve the situation in my favor. I highly recommend them and their firm as trusted advisors.”

  • A pleasure to watch you work.

    “On a personal note, it truly means so much to me that you handled my case. It has been a pleasure to watch you work and lead your team. I am so impressed and would recommend you to anyone who needs a Marital and family Attorney.”
