Below is a example client case study:
Client: Confidential – Entrepreneur in the Las Vegas area
Issue: Divorce involving multimillion-dollar assets, business ownership, and complex property division
Overview:
Ford & Flaxman PLLC represented a business owner going through a high net worth divorce that involved a family-run company, multiple real estate holdings, retirement accounts, and a prenuptial agreement.
Challenge:
The opposing party contested the validity of the prenuptial agreement and sought a significant portion of the client’s business interest and property portfolio. There were also disputes regarding spousal support and characterization of certain assets as community vs. separate property.
Strategy & Resolution:
Ford & Flaxman PLLC took a strategic approach, working closely with financial experts and forensic accountants to value the business, trace separate property, and defend the prenuptial agreement’s enforceability. Through careful negotiation and mediation, the firm helped the client avoid drawn-out litigation.
Outcome:
The case was settled favorably. The client retained full control of their business, preserved key separate property assets, and reached a fair agreement on spousal support. The prenuptial agreement was upheld, minimizing financial risk and future legal exposure.
