Skilled counsel keeps a high asset divorce under control

There is much at stake in any divorce, but a high asset divorce is a financially-complex situation that can easily veer out-of-control. Residents of Houston have likely seen the countless headlines spawned by the types of splits that affect celebrities, businesspersons and the like: disputed, heated and sometimes dragging-on forever. In a high asset divorce, it’s especially important to secure trusted counsel from the get-go so that matters stay focused on a fair conclusion.

One of the first ways in which representation in a high asset divorce is invaluable is through comprehensive treatment of each party’s finances. Couples who earned a high income or owned lucrative assets can inadvertently overlook the many details that can affect property division. Without an attorney by one’s side from the beginning, a spouse can easily forget crucial elements that will only need to be dealt with later.

Another advantage to having an attorney is the extensive knowledge brought to issues such as alimony, asset distribution and child support. One can determine the value of his or her home, but what are the implications of each spouse staying or moving? A spouse can agree to support the other after divorce, but what are the tax consequences of such an agreement? One party may decide they simply cannot part with the vacation home or the family’s prize-winning show horse, but what will it take to maintain such assets?

High-income earners are often specialists and professionals in their own right, which is why they understand how important it is to listen to the advice of individuals knowledgeable in their fields. Anyone going through a divorce is bound to be dealing with a huge amount of stress, and trying to make far-reaching decisions on one’s own can increase the pressure even more. A Houston family lawyer can shoulder the burden of delving into the details of a divorce and arranging them into an equitable outcome.

What Clients Are Saying

I met with Mrs. Lincoln and she consulted with me about my divorce. She was a wealth of information that I did not know or understand and she explained it to me fully. I hired her to represent me in this divorce and she did an outstanding job that was fair to both me and my future ex-wife. She was so good that she helped my ex-wife by answering questions for her after her lawyer would not return calls or emails. My ex-wife is the one who suggested I contact Mrs. Lincoln and made the comment that she wished she had hired her instead. I would highly recommend her if you find yourself in the situation where you need a great divorce lawyer.

Chris was patient and compassionate throughout my process, which was not very peaceful. I felt I was advised, prepared, and equipped with the knowledge and expectations needed to go through such an unfortunate situation. Chris has continued to acknowledge and answer questions even multiple years after the divorce was final.

While going through a divorce can be very hard and emotional, Chris made the whole experience as easy as possible. At no time did she judge me for the reasons behind the divorce and was a pleasure to work with under the circumstances. She was fair, up front, honest and represented me without hesitation throughout the entire process, nor did not try to nickel & dime me what so ever. I was very pleased with the final outcome and would give Chris high recommendations for anyone needing a divorce attorney.

After my wife passed away, my stepdaughter's options were me or her biological father who has never been a part of her life except to cause problems. Christine represented me throughout the adoption process and we successfully terminated his parental rights and won the adoption. As best I can recall, the only things I said to the judge were "yes ma'am" and "thank you". Prior to talking to Christine, I talked with at least 3 other lawyers, all of which told me I didn't stand a chance at adopting my daughter. Not only did we win the case, I knew we were going to win after the first court appearance.

Christine Lincoln was an absolute Godsend for me! she answered on my first call and immediately started to settle my nerves by slowly walking me through my situation and answering all of my questions. She was able, in a short 3 month period of time, to get my situation resolved. She stayed on top of my case all the while reassuring me that she would move it forward toward resolution. Absolutely fantastic!!!
