What MakesHigh Net Worth Divorce Different
High net worth divorces involve more than just standard asset division. Businesses, real estate portfolios, retirement accounts, private equity, and executive compensation all require careful review. Some assets fluctuate in value. Others are difficult to split without triggering tax penalties or future legal issues.
Ohio law still follows equitable distribution, but equitable does not always mean equal. It means fair, and proving what is fair takes documentation, strategy, and expert support. We help you classify what is marital or separate property, value what needs to be divided, and preserve what matters most to you. You’ll have a team that understands what’s at stake and knows how to protect it.

FrequentlyAsked Questions
How does the court divide assets in a high net worth divorce?
The court divides marital assets equitably, which means fairly. We help ensure separate property is protected and marital property is divided in a way that reflects your contributions and future needs.
Can my spouse take part of my business?
Not directly in most cases. We work to structure buyouts, offsets, or support terms that preserve business operations while complying with Ohio law.
What if my spouse is hiding assets?
We use discovery tools and, when needed, forensic accountants to locate hidden accounts or income. We file motions to compel disclosure and bring everything into the open.
How is spousal support calculated in high income cases?
Support is based on multiple factors, not just income. We prepare full financial affidavits and build support proposals that reflect actual financial reality, not inflated expectations.
Will I have to give up retirement or investment accounts?
Possibly, but not without a proper valuation and negotiation. We use QDROs, tax planning, and legal orders to divide accounts properly and avoid costly mistakes.
