Hidden Assets
Unless you and your spouse share all information about your joint and separate finances you may not have a complete picture of all marital property. It is not uncommon for one spouse to handle the financial matters leaving the other party at a significant disadvantage in the event of a divorce. If you are in a contested divorce it is important that you have all the information you need to make an educated and informed decision to either settle or go to trial.

How do I know if my spouse is hiding assets during a divorce in Arizona?
In Arizona each party is required to make certain mandatory disclosures during a divorce. However, even with all these procedures in place you may suspect that your spouse is hiding assets. Some things that may raise suspicion include:
- Your spouse is hesitant to share information with you – This is a red flag that your spouse may be hiding assets.
- The value of assets looks lower than you believe them to be – In anticipation of the divorce your spouse may have withdrawn funds and hid them elsewhere.
- Your spouse is reporting a lower income – often times a spouse will simple ask his employer to increase his withholding.
