Valuation of complex marital property is often a battle of experts. Once an asset has been valued, New Jersey follows the law of equitable distribution. It is important to note that “equitable” does not mean “equal,” it simply means fair. What is fair is always subject to a significant amount of interpretation, depending on the nature of the asset, the duration of the marriage, the extent to which either party was involved in obtaining or maintaining the asset, and many other factors. In order to ensure the most accurate and fair property division, we employ leading experts in fields such as accounting, financial analysis, real estate, and property appraisal. When necessary, we also call upon private investigators who are tasked with uncovering suspected hidden assets.
