Protecting You and Your Family
Our office has helped clients maintain privacy for a wide-variety of reasons in a number of different ways, including:
- Filing divorce papers in a different jurisdiction, such as a rural county, or requesting a change of venue in order to keep required public filings out of the community where the couple resides
- Executing an affidavit by both parties stating they have fully disclosed all financial assets privately in a high asset divorce, and therefore, no public disclosure on the record is necessary
- Assigning 'confidential personal identifiers' that are filed with the court, which are code names for sensitive personal information, such as bank accounts, social security numbers, life insurance policies, retirement and investment portfolios as well as business documents in an effort to prevent identity theft and protect from people researching the parties involved.
- Asking the court to seal proceedings and the record once the case has been resolved and the final divorce decree executed.

Sponseller, is a board certified family law specialist who can help you use these options when litigating a divorce or helping foster open negotiations of complex assets by helping ensure legal privacy.
