In Colorado, property isn’t split precisely down the middle, and there are several different factors that can affect the division of your assets – including: · Debt: either spouse with significant debt can influence final property allocation · Gray area assets: inheritance, premarital businesses, and more require thorough documentation and expertise to be split properly · Tax implications: retirement or investment accounts can come into play and impose tax burdens, so it’s important to consult a financial advisor, like our partner Barbara Lommen · Big picture: looking at everything all together, as well as future considerations, plays a part in how things will be divided amongst you and your spouse Understanding the aspects of property division, acknowledging hidden factors, and seeking professional counsel at Divorce Matters® will allow you to navigate this challenging journey with clarity and hope for a brighter future. 📞 (720) 943-7625 ⚖️ https://lnkd.in/eCP7YJ57 #DivorceMatters #WhatMattersMost #DivorceAttorney #ColoradoAttorney #GreenwoodVillage #Denver #ColoradoSprings #FortCollins #ColoradoLaw #ChildSupport #FamilyLaw #Divorce #TheDivorceMattersDifference #FAQ #PropertyDivision

Separated or divorced? Take a minute to think about your Will. Does it reflect your (new) situation? When relationships end, it’s crucial to update your estate plan immediately. Without updating your will, ex-partners might still be listed as beneficiaries, potentially receiving assets against your wishes. Avoid these pitfalls: 🙊 Accidental inheritance If your ex-spouse remains a beneficiary, they could inherit your assets. 👶 Outdated guardianship plans Your children's guardianship wishes might not reflect your current preferences. 🤑 Tax implications Failure to update your estate plan can result in unintended tax consequences for your estate and heirs. There’s never been a better time to take control of your future. Draft a new Will as soon as you separate, and review it again once your divorce is finalised. This ensures your assets and loved ones are protected according to your current wishes. Don't leave your estate to chance. Contact us today to secure your legacy. #EstatePlanning #Divorce #Separation #Family #ProtectYourAssets #AusLaw

Navigating a divorce can be challenging, and understanding how it impacts your taxes is crucial for a smooth transition to the next chapter of your life. 📝💔📊 Here are key points to keep in mind: Filing Status: Your marital status as of December 31st determines whether you file taxes jointly or separately for that year. Alimony Changes: For divorces finalized after 2018, alimony payments are no longer deductible by the payer, nor taxable to the recipient. Child Support: Unlike alimony, child support has no tax implications for either party. Asset Division & Retirement Accounts: Transferring assets or dividing retirement accounts as part of the divorce agreement can have significant tax consequences. Remember, it's essential to consult with a legal and tax professional to navigate these complexities. At Johnson/Turner, we're here to guide you through every step, ensuring you're informed and empowered to make the best decisions for your future. 💼❤️ Need more guidance on divorce and taxes?

We understand how important it is for you to have the financial details of your divorce negotiated and settled as quickly as possible. Part of this process is drafting Consent Orders, which sets out how the matrimonial assets, properties, pensions, debts, and income from shares and other investments will be divided upon divorce. A Consent Order is a legal agreement and protects you should your spouse change their mind about any financial arrangements you have mutually agreed to. https://lnkd.in/eGC5PKWr #consentorders #klrsolicitors #divorce #planforthefuture #mediation #solicitor #klrsolicitors #solicitors #solicitorssidcup #solicitorserith #solicitorsbexleyheath #familylaw #familylawyers #FamilyLaw #LegalAdvice #LawyersWhoCare
