Attorneys Helping Clients Uncover Hidden Assets During a Divorce in Barrington and Geneva
It is not uncommon for divorcing couples to have disputes over finances. In some cases, however, one of the spouses hides assets from the other, depriving them of a fair and equitable division of the marital property. This practice is particularly common in high net worth divorces and cases in which one spouse earns the majority of the income or has their own business. If you are considering a divorce, and you suspect that your spouse may be concealing assets or property, you need a seasoned attorney in your corner who understands forensic accounting and how to locate hidden assets.

Forensic Accounting and Hidden Asset Discovery
During a divorce, assets can be concealed in a number of different ways. Some of the most common ways divorcing spouses attempt to hide financial property include:
A spouse may be aware of an asset that is not listed on the financial disclosure, or they may have strong reason to believe there are hidden assets. Either way, hidden marital property can be uncovered through the discovery process.
During discovery, several methods can be employed to obtain the full financial information of your spouse, including:
In some divorce cases, forensic accounting may be necessary. Forensic accountants are professionals who are trained to identify issues and inconsistencies in financial records such as tax returns, bank records, business accounting statements, and similar types of documents. By utilizing advanced asset tracing methods, forensic accountants are often able to untangle complex financial circumstances and locate carefully concealed assets.
