During a divorce it is common for a spouse to attempt to hide or not disclose assets. When a spouse wants to hide assets during a divorce it is often to prevent an honest settlement.

It can be surprising to see what a spouse may be hiding from you, especially during a divorce. Advanced Private Investigator & Security of Miami, FL will share how we can help you with an assets investigation and discover any hidden assets to aid you during your divorce proceedings.

How Do You Find Out if Your Spouse is Hiding Assets?

In most divorce cases, it comes as no surprise when a spouse files for a divorce. When a couple can feel a divorce is inevitable, they will begin shifting around money and hiding valuables or assets from each other. When there is a spouse that doesn’t want to share money, or pretend certain assets are not theirs, they usually hope to get more money during the final settlement. There are many different types of assets and different ways to hide the assets. This can make it hard to discover all of the assets. This is when you can seek the help of a private investigator. A private investigator can begin taking steps to look for any hidden assets. Sometimes money is hidden in another bank account or other types of assets such as property, vehicles, jewelry and more can be discovered. A private investigator will provide evidence of the assets that can be used during the divorce proceedings.

Can an Asset Search Reveal Debt?

During a divorce settlement one of the spouses may be surprised to see what assets that might exist without their knowledge. However, it can go the other way as well. During an asset search a private investigator may turn up debts which are attached to one spouse or sometimes to both. For those who are not responsible for the debt they should not inherit the debt. Sometimes an asset search can help protect them for the other spouse’s debt. However, it might depend on when the debt occurred and if both spouse are at fault for the debt. It is important to discover debts and who may be responsible for the debt.

One Spouse is Often Responsible for Finances

It is common in a marriage for one spouse to be responsible for all of the income, paying bills and handling the bank accounts. This can allow a spouse to lose or mishandle the financial property. Additionally, they can begin hiding money including your income in other places in preparation for a divorce. When you do not have detailed knowledge of your income, often you do not know where to begin looking. Again a private investigator can help bring to light your income history and how it was handled and used. It is important that during a divorce the final settlement is fair and that no one is responsible for the other spouse’s debts. It is also important that a fair settlement is met when it comes to the couple’s previous assets.
