Hidden assets are financial resources a spouse intentionally conceals during a divorce. As Las Vegas hidden asset attorneys, we seek the full discovery and complex asset division of the marital estate. When necessary, we engage court-certified forensic accountants to audit your spouse’s finances. These professionals trace complex financial structures and uncover undisclosed wealth. In certain cases, we also deploy digital forensics experts to secure the necessary financial data. The divorce attorneys at our firm implement the strategies required to protect your financial interests.
How do I know if my spouse is hiding assets in our divorce?
Tracing concealed assets requires time and capital. Consequently, we advise proceeding only when there is evidence of undisclosed assets. Based on our practice, concealed assets can emerge under the following conditions:
- The marital estate includes complex holdings, diverse income streams, private investments, or corporate entities.
- The marriage is of long duration, providing ample time to divert funds or establish secondary accounts.
- Your spouse demonstrated a pattern of financial deception during the marriage.
- Your spouse has a history of misrepresenting financial information to partners, investors, or institutions.
- The marital portfolio involves offshore accounts or international holdings.
The forensic accountants we retain are credentialed to provide expert testimony at trial. They utilize methodologies to trace hidden assets. While some financial discrepancies are apparent, others require investigation, and occasionally, suspected assets do not materialize. We deploy these investigative resources only when the evidence justifies the investment.
What happens if I find hidden assets after my divorce is final?
In complex estates, concealed wealth may remain undetected during the initial proceedings. We draft divorce decrees with specific provisions securing your right to marital assets discovered after the case concludes. These are classified as omitted assets. Nevada law provides mechanisms to adjudicate these assets post-divorce, provided you notify your legal counsel immediately upon their discovery.
