Answering the financial questions that matter
Our role is to help attorneys understand what assets exist, who owns them, how value changed, whether funds were transferred or concealed, and what income each spouse actually receives.
Divorce cases involving substantial assets, business ownership, complex finances, or disputed income often require more than a review of tax returns and bank statements.
Intellgus provides forensic accounting and financial investigation services for divorce attorneys who need a clear understanding of a client's financial circumstances and the value, ownership, and movement of marital and separate property.
Our team helps attorneys investigate financial records, trace assets, analyze income, evaluate business interests, and organize complex financial information into clear, defensible findings that can support negotiations, mediation, discovery, and litigation.

Financial information can become complicated quickly during a divorce. A spouse may own a business, hold investments, maintain multiple bank accounts, transfer funds between accounts, receive compensation from different sources, or have assets acquired before and during the marriage.
Our role is to help attorneys understand what assets exist, who owns them, how value changed, whether funds were transferred or concealed, and what income each spouse actually receives.
We organize the financial evidence so attorneys can make informed decisions about their case strategy.

We review available financial records to identify assets, liabilities, income, business interests, and other financial resources relevant to the divorce matter.
The ultimate legal classification of property is determined by the applicable law and the court, not by the forensic accountant.
We review available financial records to identify assets, liabilities, accounts, investments, business interests, and other financial resources relevant to the divorce matter. Our analysis can help attorneys develop a more complete picture of the parties' financial position.
When funds move between multiple accounts or financial assets, tracing can become complicated. We analyze transaction histories and supporting documentation to trace the movement of funds and identify the source and destination of relevant transactions.
Property classification can be an important issue in divorce cases. We can analyze financial records and transaction histories to help attorneys understand the financial history of assets and identify transactions relevant to the characterization of property under the applicable jurisdiction's law.
A privately held business may represent one of the most significant assets in a divorce. We can perform or support business valuation analysis involving privately held companies, professional practices, partnerships, LLC interests, family-owned businesses, closely held corporations, and professional services businesses. Our analysis considers financial performance, assets, liabilities, earnings, cash flow, industry conditions, and other relevant factors.
Reported income may not always tell the complete financial story. We can analyze available financial records to identify income sources, compensation, distributions, business benefits, and other financial information relevant to the case.
In certain cases, attorneys may need to understand whether reported income is consistent with the parties' lifestyle and observed expenditures. We can analyze income, expenses, cash flows, and financial records to help identify discrepancies or unexplained differences.
When there are concerns that assets may not have been fully disclosed, forensic accounting procedures can help attorneys investigate available financial information. We analyze the available evidence rather than assuming that undisclosed assets exist.
We review debts and liabilities to help attorneys understand outstanding obligations and their financial impact on the overall marital estate.
Incomplete or disorganized records can make financial analysis difficult. Where sufficient source documentation is available, we can reconstruct financial activity from multiple records.
When one or both spouses own a business, determining the economic value of that business can become a central financial issue. Intellgus can assist attorneys with valuation analysis involving:
Medical, dental, legal, accounting, consulting, and other professional practices.
Family-owned and privately held companies where no readily observable market price exists.
Analysis of ownership interests in partnerships and limited liability companies.
Financial analysis and valuation of privately held operating businesses.
Review of ownership percentages, distributions, compensation, earnings, and other factors affecting the economic interest.
Financial transactions often provide the evidence needed to understand what happened to an asset or source of funds. Our forensic accounting process can follow transactions across income, bank accounts, investments, transfers, and assets.

A forensic accountant cannot guarantee that every hidden asset will be discovered.
Yes. Intellgus can provide business valuation and financial analysis for privately held businesses and ownership interests involved in divorce matters.
We can analyze the financial history, source of funds, transactions, and documentation associated with an asset. However, whether property is legally classified as marital or separate depends on the applicable state law and legal determination.
Depending on the case, records may include tax returns, bank statements, brokerage statements, business financial statements, general ledgers, payroll records, loan documents, credit card statements, and other financial records.
No. Forensic accounting is generally most valuable when a case involves financial complexity, disputed assets or income, business ownership, tracing issues, or other circumstances where specialized financial analysis is useful.
