Sophisticated divorce representation for doctors, lawyers, CEOs, and other professionals in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, and throughout Broward and Palm Beach County.
At Barbra Amron Weisberg, P.A., we have significant legal experience representing clients in complex divorce litigation and advising clients through resolving matters in mediation. If necessary, as trial lawyers we are aggressive advocates of your interests and can provide effective strategies designed to achieve your goals.
One of the most difficult issues in a divorce involving individuals of high net worth is that the couple often shares businesses, professional practices, investment accounts, multiple properties, and other highly valued assets. Careful analysis must be given to determine what property is separate, what property is marital, and what appreciated value of separate property is now considered marital property as well.

- Valuation of stocks

Protecting Your Separate Property
Florida law calls for the equitable distribution of marital property and assets. If you believe that you should retain the rights to your separate property, Barbra Amron Weisberg, Esq. can defend this belief. Of course, many high net worth individuals also have children, which can make divorce proceedings that much more emotional and complex. In addition to protecting your economic concerns, we will also represent you in the formation of a parenting plan that protects your child's best interests.
