All matrimonial actions start with a common goal: “What is the total marital estate?”

We are frequently retained to help lawyers and their clients identify the total marital estate both from an asset and income point of view.

Our involvement usually begins at the start of the discovery process requiring careful analysis of various financial documents and determining what additional financial documents and information are required or should be available.

These services which would normally be a combination of detailed analytical and forensic investigations would include:

 

 

 

 

• Analysing personal and business tax returns and financial statements
• Reviewing bank statements, credit card statements are other asset statements such as Investment accounts
• Assisting in client interviews and statements
• Tracing assets to determine or refute separate property claims
• Determining income available for spousal maintenance and child support
• Performing various Duxbury Calculations
• Computing reasonable needs or living expenses
• Assist in the preparation of Statements of Net Worth
• Valuation of business interests
• Providing Expert Witness reports and Testimonies
