Common Tax Issues Involved in Divorce
Don’t Overlook the Tax Issues Created By Your Divorce
Tax consequences follow many of the decisions made during a divorce, settlement agreement, or marital dispute resolution – often for many years to come. Whether you are involved in a divorce, separate maintenance agreement or annulment, it is important to consider taxes and the implications they may carry. Having knowledge of the tax issues created by your divorce is essential. This is why you should have an experienced divorce lawyer by your side.
Although your marriage may be coming to an end, the old saying about death and taxes still rings true. While the institution of marriage has often drawn comparisons to an economic partnership between two people, the truth is that both spouses need to be aware of their responsibilities for any and all tax liabilities incurred. Overlooking the tax consequences stemming from your divorce would be a mistake, which is why we encourage you to speak with the team at Lois M. Brenner, Esq. today.
Some of the most commonly overlooked tax implications include:
- Tax implications of spousal support
- Tax implications of child support
- Tax exemption for dependent children
- Deductibility of mortgage interest
- Tax implications of pensions and 401(K) plans

You two are really the dynamic duo! I can’t thank you both enough for the incredible job you did on my case. As a young career woman and working mother of a toddler I could not have been in better hands. You really toughened me up and guided me when I was feeling really lost. I was afraid of my husband’s clever antics but you worked hard on my case and encouraged me to fight. The settlement I received exceeded my expectations. You both listened, always returned e-mails, phone calls and even reached out to me on the weekends when I was having trouble. If anyone is going through a divorce and needs the best people to fight for you call Lois and Matt. It was the best thing I ever did. There are no words to express how grateful I am.- Tara P.

Amazing, Skillful Mediator!!!! We went to see Lois Brenner for a mediation consultation. We had pretty much decided our marriage was over. We just wanted to end things fair and amicably. Lois Brenner spent so much time with us, and gave us great insight as to how the process would help us, we hired her on the spot. Our sessions thereafter were stealth. She organized us, helped us identify and address all the issues. She showed us how to communicate effectively throughout the process. We were able to address all our issues, especially property and finances, arrive at a comfortable settlement agreement, and now we are waiting for the judge to sign our divorce. What an extraordinary process. I highly recommend Lois Brenner and mediation. She’s super, and mediation really works.- Maggie & Josh

Going through with our divorce was very difficult time for me and my ex husband. Finding the right lawyer was very confusing, frustrating and time consuming. I was very lucky to find Lois. She is professional and human at the same time. In a few sessions she answered all of our questions, gave us great advice and filled and filed all paperwork for us. Our divorce was finalized very quickly and thanks to Lois it was very smooth process. If my best friend would need a divorce lawyer I would recommend Lois without any reservations.!!!

Best Divorce Lawyers in NYC!! I can’t say enough about Lois Brenner. She saved my life. I was really being abused by my husband. I wanted a divorce, but I was scared to leave. Hiring her provided me with a support system that helped me break free of a destructive marriage. She, along with her team of professionals, and her litigation colleague Matt really gave me the backbone to step up and out. My children are safe, I’m back at work, and we are no longer afraid. The ongoing legal and personal support made all of this possible. Working with Lois and Matt was a life-changing experience. Katie M.- Katie M.
