Dividing Stock Options In a Massachusetts Divorce

Significant assets such as stocks and stock options can be wonderful things to own at the start of a marriage. At the end of a marriage, however, they can create complications.

If you are facing divorce in Boston or the surrounding areas and ownership of stocks or their cash value is in dispute, the experienced divorce attorneys at the Law Offices of Andrew S. Guisbond work hard to restore order to the chaos in your financial life.

We refer to “chaos” because stock prices rise and fall, stocks can “split” and become worth much more, and suddenly this kind of property division becomes incredibly complex. Our lawyers crunch the numbers in convincing detail. Andrew S. Guisbond used his decades of experience, in negotiations and at trial, to increase the chances for positive results for every client.

Have accountants weighed in on these difficulties? Have you been told about the potential tax consequences of your stock division objectives?
