Protecting the Marital Estate in High Asset Divorces in Connecticut
Individuals or families with extensive assets or high net worth have a lot at stake in divorce. In Connecticut, marital property is divided based on the principle of equitable distribution. This means the court will divide property in a way that is fair, but not necessarily equal. To ensure the division is fair to you, you may consider seeking the assistance of an attorney experienced in asset protection.
At The Law Offices of Frederick F. Ward II, LLC, our lawyer has 30 years of experience representing clients in high-end divorce and other family law matters. We understand the complexities involved in defining what the marital assets are and how such assets should be valued.

Determining the Right Course of Asset Protection for You
No two divorces are alike, which means that no single approach to asset protection works in all situations. Attorney Frederick F. Ward will work carefully to identify all assets that may raise complex issues and will discuss your options on how to best protect yourself. We will consider a number of potential areas of conflict, including:
- Pensions, IRAS or 401(k) protection or division
- Family businesses or other business valuation concerns
- Real estate
- Stocks and bonds
- Life insurance policies
- Alimony/spousal support
- Child support
- Credit card or tax debt
Having the assistance of an experienced and aggressive family law attorney can be invaluable when seeking asset protection guidance during your divorce or legal separation. This is true even if you have only a modest income or live a modest lifestyle. If you own or have interest in any of the assets or debts mentioned above, it is a good idea to speak with a trained lawyer as soon as possible.
