Every divorce must provide for the equitable division of property. The court will approve or make an equitable division of property. Every divorce brings with it some complexities. This is true for middle-class wage earners, and it is even more so with high asset couples. Married couples who have substantial assets and income such as the following may make the divorce process particularly complex:
- Second homes, such as vacation properties
- Investment properties
- Expensive recreational "toys," such as boats, Jet Skis, antiques, hunting rifles, expensive tools and more
- Timeshares
- Expensive pets and/or livestock, such as pure-bred dogs or quarter horses
- Gold, stocks and bonds
- Expensive jewelry, furniture and other household or personal items
- Stock options
- Business ownership, partnership or investments
- Retirement assets, such as pensions and 401(k) savings accounts
