Dividing Stock Options & RSUs Attorneys in Miami

Dividing Stock Options And RSUs In A Divorce In Florida

Divorce can be difficult, especially when it involves dividing complex financial assets such as stock options and restricted stock units (RSUs). In Florida, these assets are treated as marital property if earned during the marriage, which means they may be subject to division. Because the rules around valuation, tax implications and vesting schedules can be complicated, working with an experienced divorce attorney who understands how Florida courts approach these issues is crucial.

At Jeffrey Law, PA, we focus on helping individuals in Miami, Florida, and surrounding areas protect their financial interests during divorce. With over 15 years of experience, our firm, established in 2017, is equipped to handle complex matters involving executive compensation, equity grants and business assets. We understand the importance of properly assessing stock options and RSUs so that you do not lose out on assets you are entitled to under Florida law. Our lawyers are committed to providing professional representation tailored to the unique needs of every client.

How Are Stock Options And RSUs Divided In A Florida Divorce?

Florida is an equitable distribution state, which means property is divided fairly, though not always equally. Courts will consider whether stock options or RSUs were:

  • Granted during the marriage and earned as part of compensation.
  • Vested or unvested at the time of the divorce.
  • Subject to restrictions, such as continued employment.

These factors can affect how much stock or RSUs are considered marital property. A skilled divorce lawyer can help ensure proper evaluation and protect your rights during property division.
