Financial Infidelity
There are many questionable practices that spouses will engage in during a marriage in an attempt to protect themselves financially in the case of a divorce. One fairly common practice is financial infidelity.
Financial infidelity occurs when one partner goes to great lengths – lying, manipulation, hiding funds – to keep his or her spouse from knowing about money that was earned during the marriage. When assets are hidden, it is usually an attempt to protect them during the division of property during divorce.

Unearthing Financial Infidelity
If financial infidelity happened frequently during a marriage, the spouse on the receiving end of the infidelity may feel that there is no way of finding out what assets actually exist. This is not, however, the case. A divorce lawyer can:
- Subpoena records such as bank account or stock information
- Cross-examine the offending spouse on the witness stand about hidden assets
- Reveal instances of financial infidelity to the judge, at which point the lying about finances may actually work in the other spouses favor
Just because a spouse lied about finances during a marriage does not mean he or she will get away with it during divorce proceedings.
