Put a Board-Certified Attorney On Your Side
Board certification matters in a high-asset divorce. It represents advanced training, rigorous testing, and continued education in Texas family law, and these credentials become invaluable when your financial future is tied to the outcome of your case. As a board-certified family law attorney, David Cook completes recertification every five years, demonstrating an ongoing commitment to staying current with evolving statutes, case law, and best practices.
For clients, this level of dedication translates into strategic guidance and meticulous preparation at every stage of the process. High-value estates often include complex assets such as business interests, investment portfolios, real property, and retirement accounts. These require a lawyer who understands not only the law, but the financial implications of each decision you make. With David’s experience and certification, you can move forward with confidence knowing your case is handled with the highest degree of precision and legal skill. Reach out today to schedule your consultation and start protecting what matters most.
Prenuptial or Post-Marital Agreements Can Be Contested After the Fact
Many couples with substantial estates have prenuptial or postnuptial agreements. While these documents are legally binding, they are not automatically final.
Our team can challenge or enforce these agreements when:
- Assets were hidden at the time the agreement was drafted
- One spouse was pressured or coerced into signing
- Terms were unclear, improperly executed, or not legally compliant
- New information comes to light during the divorce process
Some situations require separate contract litigation to resolve the agreement’s validity. We handle these cases with care and strategy, ensuring your rights are protected and that all property is accurately evaluated.

Hidden Assets
High net-worth couples often have intricate financial structures, but that complexity can make it easy for one spouse to conceal money, investments, or property.
If you’re not the spouse who manages the finances, you may not know the full scope of your marital estate. This can place you at a severe disadvantage in divorce proceedings.
Our firm uncovers assets through:
- Financial tracing
- Review of business and tax documents
- Analysis of investment histories
- Collaboration with forensic accountants
If something is missing, we know how to find it.
Has Your Spouse Hidden Assets?
If you believe your spouse has concealed income, investments, or property, acting quickly can protect your rights. Texas law requires equal and fair division, but that depends on full disclosure.
We investigate:
- Undisclosed bank accounts
- Transfers to friends or family
- Business write-offs that mask personal expenses
- Unreported bonuses or income
- Real estate or investment holdings in other states or countries
If assets have been hidden, we pursue the legal remedies needed to ensure fair division.
High-Value Assets
High-asset divorces often involve property that cannot be divided like a simple bank account. Our attorneys regularly handle cases involving:
We assess ownership interests, business valuation, and whether assets are corporate or marital, to safeguard your role and future success.
From residential homes to commercial holdings, we help determine whether property is community or separate and create a plan for equitable division.
Life insurance may need to be restructured after divorce. We help ensure beneficiaries and policy terms are updated to reflect your best interests.
Investment portfolios can require expert valuation, especially when there are private accounts. We work with specialists to uncover, value, and divide them.
Complex property divisions require accountants, appraisers, and valuation pros. We give your case the attention it deserves.

Ensure Your Retirement Is Protected
Retirement accounts — including pensions, 401(k)s, and investment-based plans — are often among the most valuable assets in a high-asset divorce.
Whether you contributed directly or not, these accounts typically fall under community property. Our team:
- Identifies all retirement assets
- Ensures QDROs and other orders are executed correctly
- Helps divide accounts in a way that protects long-term financial stability
We assist clients throughout Arlington, Southlake, and Mansfield in safeguarding their retirement and building a secure future.
