Guard Thy Treasures From Loss

This quote comes from one of the most treasured books on the planet The Richest Man in Babylon which is a guide about how to live your best life saving, and investing your money. Your treasures in a family law case are typically your family home, your cottage, your Saratoga Plan, your pension, your portfolio and other assets, including your pets. This book centers on the concept that your job in life is to build wealth and preserve it because it can be taken away from you so easily. Perhaps you have a manipulative spouse who is draining the estate and causing you to spend money out of your comfort zone, or a partner with a gambling habit who is hitting the casinos hard and draining the accounts. Our job as family lawyers is to protect the wealth that you build and to ensure it stays in your hands. This means ensuring all assets on date of marriage are deducted, inheritances excluded, post separation assets created with personal wealth, and all liabilities are deducted from the assets that are still remaining on the Date of Separation.

Please do not hesitate to contact Veena Pohani for a consult at 416-444-6010 today to discuss your rights and obligations in a family breakdown.
