High net worth divorces in New York involve more than dividing bank accounts. Equitable distribution applies to businesses, stock options, professional practices, art collections, crypto, and hidden offshore holdings. The firm that represents you must know how to value, trace, and fight for complex property - in negotiation and at trial.
Tracing marital vs. separate property.
New York distinguishes marital property from separate assets. Commingling, prenuptial agreements, and transmutation can shift what is on the table. We work with forensic accountants and valuation experts to build a defensible record.
Business valuation and executive comp.
Closely held businesses, partnerships, RSUs, and carried interest are routinely undervalued in divorce. We challenge inflated discounts and expose income used for support calculations - not just balance sheets.

High-profile divorces attract media attention and aggressive opposing counsel. Spodek Law Group P.C. has handled celebrity divorces featured in major outlets - with the discretion and trial preparation those cases require.
