When contemplating or anticipating a divorce filing, it is not uncommon for a wealthy party to conceal in offshore holdings, trusts, complex corporate structures, and digital currency. To effectively identify and value assets that have not been disclosed – or are grossly undervalued – in divorce proceedings, it is important to utilize the latest investigative tools to identify the hidden assets; and freeze them when needed.

Some of the challenges, tools and assets that will be discussed in this engaging session include:

  • Hurdles to gathering evidence in multiple foreign jurisdictions
  • How to utilize Forensic Accounting, Corporate Intelligence and Psychodynamic Services for high stakes asset recovery investigations
  • Creative use of insolvency tools
