Legal Question in Family Law in Pennsylvania

Appointment of a master

When a master is appointed will the parties have to show what was done with assets acquired during the marriage and after separation? My husband has been transfering assets to family members of his and telling me he sold them. He has also traded in or used certain vehicles for collaterall to obtain loans shortly after we separated. Will he have to show proof of all of this. I believe he is trying to avoid giving me my portion by squandering these assets while still keeping them in the family. He is currently engaged and may have put assets in her name like buying another house and putting it in her name alone. Can I call his girlfriend or family members to testify to this? We were married 12 years and is trying to prevent me from getting what I am entitled to.

Re: Appointment of a master

Generally, parties are required to inform the court regarding marital assets. With the level of suspected fraudulent transfers you will probably need a lawyer and perhaps a forensic accountant to examine these transactions. I offer free consultations and accept major credit cards.
