Freehold New Jersey Divorce Asset Attorney

When divorce is inevitable, concerns start to arise about protecting your assets during the process. The question is, how do you protect what is yours? There are steps you can take and steps you cannot take. It's important to know that steps that may seem perfectly reasonable may end up working against you. Consult an experienced attorney first.

The Krompier Law Firm in Freehold is dedicated to helping New Jersey men protect what they have worked so hard to earn and achieve. You can be confident that your assets will be carefully protected, that every step will be taken to get you through the divorce process with your fair share of the marital property.

Neither Side Can Invade the Marital Assets

While bank accounts can be used to buy things like gas and groceries, you cannot make a mass withdrawal from a joint bank account or sell one of the family cars. You should not move assets around in any way. These movements can and will be detected, meaning they will end up working against you. Attorney Douglas I. Krompier MBA LLC will advise you what you can and cannot do with your assets.

If Your Wife Invades the Marital Estate

One of your major concerns may be that your spouse is going to dip into the bank account. Perhaps she has even verbally threatened to do just that. While it may be tempting to take the money out of the bank account and place it somewhere for safekeeping, this could be perceived as you doing exactly what you attempted to thwart.

The reality is that if your wife invades the marital estate, she will not get away with it. Attorney Krompier, armed with his MBA and three decades of financial and accounting expertise, takes great care to review the full financial picture. Discovery will be conducted to review movement of assets. If your wife withdrew $50,000 from your joint savings account and transferred it into her mother's account, she will have left an electronic trail behind. This will be used against her in court. Your assets will be protected.
