00:06
stress but when there’s more assets in
00:09
equity there’s even more anxiety and
00:12
stress and it’s not just because there’s
00:13
more to divide it’s because of the
00:15
confusion a lot of times in high net

value divorces you’ve got things that
00:20
are more complex you have small
00:22
businesses or closely held businesses

where there’s a question of how much

equity is marital that belongs to
00:28
partners or the one of the family
