United States law
Cryptocurrency and US marital property law
Crypto as marital property
Under applicable state law, cryptocurrency acquired during a marriage or domestic partnership (depending on state law) may be marital or community property subject to equitable distribution or division - unless a valid separate property claim applies.
The disclosure problem
Cryptocurrency is easy to hide without forensic analysis. Self-custody wallets, overseas exchanges, and DeFi positions may not appear in standard financial disclosure - making specialist tracing essential for a fair division.
Separation date valuation
The date of separation often determines the value at which crypto is divided. We establish point-in-time valuations using verifiable market data and documented methodology that withstands family court scrutiny.
Family court standards
Reports must meet family court evidentiary standards - clear methodology, reproducible analysis, plain English summaries, and technical appendices. Our documentation is structured for proceedings under applicable state property division laws.
