Add Backs What They Are and What You Need to Know (EP.129)
Description
In this episode of The Divorce Collective Podcast, Dannielle Young, Family Lawyer at Collective Family Law Group, unpacks one of the biggest shifts in family law — how courts now handle add-backs in property settlements. ⚖
If you’ve heard the term “add-backs” before or are currently dividing assets after separation, this episode is a must-listen. Danielle explains how the recent Shinnehara & Shinnehara case has changed the approach — the courts no longer pretend spent money still exists. Instead, they focus on what’s really left in the property pool today and assess fairness based on how and why funds were used.
Tune in to understand what this means for your property settlement, why timing matters, and how to move forward wisely after separation.
