Experienced legal support to uncover undisclosed property in divorce and separation.
If you have concerns about hidden or undisclosed assets during your separation or divorce, our firm can provide the experienced legal support you need. We are committed to ensuring full financial disclosure and a fair division of property in your case.
Hidden assets refer to property or financial interests that one party intentionally fails to disclose to the other or to the court during separation or divorce proceedings with the aim of preventing fair division. Non-disclosure is the act of deliberately withholding this information.
Mincher Koeman ensures complete financial transparency in your divorce or separation. We offer:
When you suspect your spouse may not be providing a complete picture of their finances during a separation or divorce, it’s important to understand your legal rights and the obligations of full financial disclosure.
Alberta law requires both parties to disclose all assets and debts honestly and transparently. If there’s a concern that assets are being concealed, taking proactive steps is necessary to ensure a fair property division.
If you suspect non-disclosure, gathering any evidence you have and seeking legal counsel immediately is strongly advised. Our experienced teams in Calgary and Canmore can guide you through the process of compelling disclosure, which may involve formal requests for documents, questioning under oath, and even forensic accounting when required.
Hidden assets refer to any property, income, or financial interests that one party intentionally consoles from the other during separation or divorce proceedings. This is a significant concern because all parties have a legal obligation to provide full disclosure, and concealing assets can lead to an unfair division of matrimonial property.
Identifying hidden assets often involves a detailed review of financial documents, including bank statements, tax returns, corporate records, and investment accounts. Our lawyers can employ various strategies, such as forensic accounting, questioning under oath, and formal legal requests for disclosure, to uncover any concealed property or income.
Failing to fully disclose assets in divorce or separation can have serious legal consequences. Courts can impose penalties, including ordering the non-disclosing party to pay a larger share of the hidden assets to the other spouse, awarding significant legal costs, or even setting aside previous agreements or court orders.
