Divorce After 50

Divorce After 50

More and more couples are seeking divorces late in life. As their children leave the house and they get closer to retirement, many spouses are making the decision to part ways and embark on separate paths.

Couples divorcing later in life face far more complexities than those divorcing early. While there is less strain due to child custody and related matters, financial issues move to the forefront.  Older couples have likely set a path for retirement and financing their lifestyle after they stop working. Disrupting that plan and dividing the assets can provide a range of issues and complications that can affect when they can retire, or if either one would have to return to the workforce at an advanced age.

There are solutions, however, and ways to successfully split assets and still protect the retirement benefits of both individuals, as much as possible. You need a skilled property division lawyer on your side, navigating these complexities and providing innovative solutions.
