The Best Outcome in Divorce Starts with Information on Gathering

Gather Information & Documents: You can avoid many months of litigation and thousands of dollars by gathering and copying key financial records in advance including but not limited to: (a) tax returns (personal and business – typically past five years); (b) spending records (preferably three years of checking account statements, check registers, canceled checks and credit card statements); (c) personal financial statements; (d) loan applications; (e) business records; (f) insurance policies and riders; (g) bank and brokerage account statements; (h) retirement account statements; (i) wills and trust documents; (j) real or personal property appraisals; (k) deeds and mortgages; and (l) any other documents that you believe that your attorney should have.
