Experienced Divorce Attorney for Complex Financial Situations
In some divorces, the division of property can be handled with a pad of paper and a pencil. In other instances, property division may require a forensic accountant to untangle what has been woven together over time.
Giustino Capodilupo is a Connecticut complex property division lawyer with experience accomplishing the division of marital assets for complex financial situations and high net worth couples.
In a divorce, child custody and spousal support can be modified after the divorce. The division of property is permanent (unless there are hidden assets or fraud is involved), so it is important to do it right.
Our law firm's experience includes the division of:
- Retirement plans and pensions
- Sole proprietorships
- Second homes
- Non-liquid assets including real estate
- Stock options
- Medical or dental practices
- Artwork collections
Business Valuations for Owners and Partners
On paper, a business ownership will typically include both spouses, even though one is an owner on paper and the other spouse may be an actual managing partner. Occasionally, there are owners or partners outside of the marriage. Our law firm has experience with business valuations as part of the division of marital property.

It is important to know that an equitable distribution of assets is not a 50 percent split of every asset. Some assets are inherently different. Other assets may have emotional value for one spouse, but only financial value for the other spouse. At our law firm we look at the big picture in terms of valuation of assets and liquidity as well as financial goals, lifestyle and future earning power.
In addition to the division of marital assets, marital debt must also be shared. Debt divisions will depend on a number of factors including the future earning power of each spouse. A spouse with significant earning power may agree to accept more of the debt in exchange for keeping more of the assets.
The more complex the financial situation, the more options are available to chose from in your search for an agreeable solution. An experienced attorney looking out for your best interests can be your guide through this complicated process.
