Distribution of marital assets can be as painful or as painless as you want it to be.
In a litigated divorce that features a divorce trial, the judge is likely to order valuable pieces liquidated, often at below-market rates, but if you and your spouse are willing to work together and avoid that outcome, the antique collection may remain intact.
This is especially true if there are other assets that both parties have an interest in, so the value of the antiques may be balanced against the value of a home, retirement account, or other property, and the spouses can trade assets to preserve the things they value.
Negotiation over marital assets is a fundamental part of the divorce process, and the attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer can help facilitate productive negotiations that emphasize the things you cherish most.
