Partner Robert D. Raver Presents Equitable Distribution in Divorce for the Pennsylvania Bar Institute
On June 2, 2023, Bob Raver served as a panelist for the Pennsylvania Bar Institute’s (“PBI”) Equitable Distribution in Divorce presentation. PBI describes the course, which is still available, as follows: Complex fact patterns arise in numerous cases. The difficulty becomes how to present the facts in a positive manner or how to defend the facts vigorously. Join this panel of experienced attorneys and Divorce Masters as they work through three fact patterns and share their best tips and tricks. Discussion will include: – Most persuasive factors – How to size up the case and narrow the issues – Preferred litigation strategies – Divorce Masters’ expectations for lawyers PBI’s approach was practical; it involved three scenarios with complex equitable distribution issues. In each scenario, a lawyer was assigned to represent a party before a master at a pretrial conference. Bob’s scenario involved business valuation, equitable reimbursement, dissipation of marital assets, and reasonable compensation for closely held business owners.
