Over the past twenty years, we have handled a wide variety of divorces, and each case has its own unique aspects of marital property division. That is why we will tailor a plan that truly fits your needs. It is easy to remember to defend your rights when it comes to major assets such as your house and car, but we can help you come up with creative solutions for assets people don't think about dividing:
- Employment benefits
- Land held outside the state of Texas
- Contractual rights
- Mineral interests
- Unique items of value such as antiques, collectibles, and livestock
- Family business
Inventory of Your Marital Assets
One of the first, and most important, things you should do when you are getting divorced is to take a complete inventory of your marital assets. It takes a lot of important planning to make sure all assets are properly identified. You should take the time to itemize all property you own, as well as property of your spouse.
Mediation
There are several ways in which mediation is a more effective tool for the division of marital assets. There are legal limits as to what a trial judge can accomplish in court, even if both sides agree. By pursuing mediation, you have much more flexibility. Also, by taking a divorce to court, you risk the chance of the judge's making some damaging decisions, such as the sale of your assets, including businesses.
