Property / Debt Settlement

Phoenix Divorce Property Settlement Lawyer

All marital assets are subject to division in a divorce. Likewise, any debt acquired during your marriage, such as credit card balances, car loans and mortgages must be divided as well.

The divorce attorneys at the Law Office of Scott David Stewart have the legal and financial resources required to sort through what can be a very complicated process, working closely with accountants and financial planners when necessary. We have handled many high-asset divorce cases and are prepared to help you understand how complex assets are viewed in divorce.

Be prepared and informed regarding your property rights. Contact our property settlement lawyers. With offices in Phoenix and Chandler, Arizona, we are able to represent clients in Mesa, El Mirage, Scottsdale, Glendale, Gilbert, and Sun City.

Property Division and Debt Settlement: Providing Documentation

To ensure you aren't exposed to future legal problems or find yourself saddled with debt that isn't yours, it's important to review the following kinds of documentation when dividing marital equity and debt:

• Tax returns
• Mortgage papers
• Investment portfolio
• Bank account records
• Credit card statements
• Pension plan statements
• Any titles or deeds of ownership
• Business records (if you own your own business)

We are dedicated to protecting your interests and ensuring claims are not made against "separate" property you brought with into your marriage.

When the Numbers Don't Add Up

In cases where financial information is lacking or unclear, we work with forensic accountants and investigators to uncover hidden assets, undeclared property, and determine the real value of a business. Alternatively, if your ex-spouse claims your business is worth more than it is, or your assets are greater than reported, our accounting consultants can provide documentation to support your claims.
