well I mean it really depends so high
net worth divorces are going to be
looking at you know potentially in
excess of 10 million dollars but there’s
a difference between a high net worth
divorce and a complex divorce so you
might have a uh 20 million dollar
divorce but uh there’s no business
there’s only inherited wealth and
there’s a premarital agreement that
governs everything and nobody’s
objecting to it so in that case it may
be a very very simple divorce despite
the fact that there may be a lot of
money at issue you might also have a
five million dollar divorce that is
maybe not you know a high asset divorce
but where you have uh income of eight
hundred thousand dollars a year and you
have a closely held business and you’re
going to have to sort of figure out what
the value of the business is uh
considering you know the income and
where that business is going to go it
becomes more complex if there are no
other assets
um we we don’t want to have divorce be a
complete dismantling of the marital
estate we really want to end up with an
equitable solution where businesses can
continue to operate and people get their
Fair settlement so when we talk about
high asset versus complexity you know
it’s it’s mix and match you can have a
little bit of both I would say a lot of
the cases in Colorado uh that we do you
know are somewhere between 20 million
and 70 million we’ve had much higher
cases uh in the in the high asset
divorce cases but we’ve also had you
know much lower cases with lower dollar
value cases with more complex issues
that we’ve had to parse through
