Let a highly trained divorce attorney in Bakersfield evaluate your assets
Financial questions have to be addressed directly and comprehensively to make sure your marital property is fairly divided. We also understand the need to work efficiently so that our clients' assets are not wiped out by attorney's fees. By performing a thorough investigation, a divorce attorney at our law office in the Ridgecrest area can help ensure that you receive the best possible marital property settlement. First, we conduct a discovery process to identify your spouse's assets. This can be difficult if a spouse does not disclose or purposefully hides his or her property—if necessary, we work with experts to investigate a spouse's marital assets to ensure that all property, even hidden assets, is completely revealed.
A Ridgecrest area divorce attorney at our law office can inform you that California is a community property state, meaning that all assets and properties acquired during the marriage are typically distributed equally between the spouses. Certain assets, however, will be considered the separate property of one spouse if he or she can show that these assets do not qualify as community property, such as certain gifts and inheritances. Classifying assets as separate or community property is a complex process requiring a detailed review of each spouse's financial records. A Delano divorce attorney can perform this assessment in a timely manner. After all assets have been properly classified, they also must be accurately valued to ensure a fair and equal division between the spouses. Our Bakersfield divorce attorneys consult financial experts and appraisers for a complete grasp of the important financial issues involved in dividing property.
A divorce attorney can help you find a favorable resolution
After identifying and fairly valuing community property, spouses typically begin to divide their assets. As a Delano area divorce lawyer at our firm can explain, in many situations, spouses either negotiate an equal division of their properties, or one spouse will offer to buy out the other spouse with an equalization payment to compensate for a residence, business or other asset he or she wants to keep. When negotiating a distribution of assets, we advise our clients to consider long-term financial issues, including retirement planning and tax planning. California's community property laws provide considerable flexibility for spouses seeking an amicable settlement.
