Washington Divorce Lawyer
While Washington courts are required to divide property in an equitable fashion, the term equitable does not necessarily mean an equal 50/50 division of the marital estate. Even in cases in which spouses agree that it is best to divide property evenly, however, significant disputes may arise as to the value or characterization of property.
If you are contemplating divorce or have been served with a divorce petition, it is critical that you retain an experienced and knowledgeable divorce attorney who understands how to effectively protect your right to an equitable division of the marital estate.
I am Mark D. Hodgson, a Washington family law attorney with the experience and dedication to protect your rights. I am prepared to adeptly manage complex property division issues and other financial matters that may arise in the course of your marital dissolution, including:
- Valuation or division of a closely held corporation
- Characterization of property (community vs. separate property)
- Division of retirement and investment accounts
- Valuation or division of real estate
- High-earner child support issues
- Spousal support claims
- Concealment of marital assets
- Allocation of marital debts
