S10 Ep05: What If My Spouse Opens Accounts After Filing for Divorce?
from Divorce Fast & Easy In Michigan
#ChooseGoldman Opening new bank accounts to hide money during a divorce is considered financial misconduct and can lead to severe legal penalties. Attorney Akiva Goldman explains that Michigan courts require full transparency and will use tools like subpoenas to track any income redirected away from marital accounts. • Hiding marital assets in new accounts is viewed as an illegal attempt to misrepresent your finances to the court. • All financial transactions leave a trail, and attorneys can subpoena employers to find where direct deposits have been redirected. • The court may impose significant penalties on parties who attempt to bypass an equitable division of property. • Any new accounts opened for post-separation expenses must be fully disclosed to the other party to remain above board. • Judges may shift the property division in favor of the honest spouse if deliberate asset concealment is discovered. 📞 (248) 590-6600 Call/Text 📅 For a Complimentary Phone Case Evaluation: https://app.acuityscheduling.com/schedule.php?owner=17105687&appointmentType=18529428 Click here to watch the video: https://youtu.be/EIshYKiYk6U For more information: https://akivagoldman.com/michigan-divorce-lawyer ⬇️ Download Divorce & Custody Survival Guide.
