What Is a High Net Worth Divorce?

A high net worth divorce involves couples whose assets, property, or combined income exceed the average household threshold — often involving complex financial structures, multiple properties, and substantial investments.

Protecting Privacy and Reputation

West Virginia follows the principle of equitable distribution, meaning assets are divided fairly, not necessarily equally.

Our attorneys make sure all property, from homes and accounts to businesses and retirement funds, is accurately evaluated before any division takes place.

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

For couples with substantial assets, prenuptial or postnuptial agreements play a critical role in protecting wealth.
