Dayton, United States – April 3, 2018 /PressCable/ —

Ever since women were guaranteed the legal right to own property, men have been trying to cheat them out of it in a divorce. In this day and age, divorce “cheaters” are of course both male and female. “I have seen a ton of creative ways parties have tried to hide assets during my 40 years of litigating contested divorce cases. Because of the surge of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies ownership, I realized I really needed to update my 5 year old E-book, “Finding Hidden Income/Assets During a Divorce”, stated attorney Chip Mues. He is the managing partner of the Dayton Ohio law firm of Holzfaster, Cecil, McKnight & Mues, LPA.

Part of the required process in a divorce in every state is for each side to make a complete disclosure of all assets under oath. To follow that up, lawyers routinely submit discovery requests to obtain financial documents, tax returns, bank statements, credit card statements etc. However, according to Mues, most do not properly request all of what is needed to find evidence of bitcoin and cryptocurrency assets. Once the required documents are obtained the “sleuthing” process begins.

Pamela D. Morgan is an attorney licensed to practice law in Illinois and Michigan and an expert in cryptocurrencies and bitcoin. Mues recently shared with her the sentiments from an individual who told him, “My husband owns a lot of bitcoin but tells me that if we divorce there is no way you or your lawyer will ever find out about it.” Attorney Morgan chuckled and said, “Bitcoin isn’t really a secretive asset, that’s a common misconception. Bitcoin is actually incredibly transparent. It’s held on a public ledger that provides permanent, unforgeable, proof of ownership and all transactions are public. What needs to be done is to tie the spouse with the bitcoin address. This is all doable!” Pamela Morgan’s website is empoweredlaw.com . As an aside, Attorney Morgan will be in Dayton on June 8, 2018, presenting at a seminar at the University of Dayton School of Law concerning bitcoin and cryptocurrencies.
