Divorce Case: Preserving a Multi-Million Dollar Inheritance
We represented a client in a high-stakes Oklahoma divorce involving a multimillion-dollar inheritance. The opposing spouse sought to claim part of those inherited funds as marital property.
Legal Strategy
Our attorneys conducted a detailed financial analysis tracing the inherited assets to their separate-property source. We filed motions to exclude them from the marital estate and presented expert testimony on commingling and asset tracing.
Challenges
The case involved over a year of litigation, with extensive financial discovery and valuation disputes. The opposing party attempted to argue transmutation through shared accounts and joint expenditures.
Resolution
After comprehensive hearings and negotiations, we secured a final decree fully protecting our client’s inheritance. The court confirmed it as separate property, preserving our client’s financial future and validating our strategic, evidence-driven approach.
