Divorce Depositions: Questions about Bank Accounts, Investments & Retirement Accounts
At the Law Office of Matthew Z Martell, P.A. we will use depositions as a tool during your divorce proceeding to discover relevant and material facts, determine the strategy of your case, and search the conscience of the deponent.

Retirement Investment and Retirement Accounts:
What specific retirement accounts do you have?

- Brokerage?
- Stock?
- Mutual funds?
- Treasury bonds?
- Cash?
- Coins?
- Gold?
- Silver?
Various Types of Bank Accounts:
If you have a joint account with your spouse:
- Where and when was it created?
- What was the source of the original deposit into this account?
- Which one of you made deposits into this account?
- What was the source of these deposits?
- What did you and your spouse use this account for?
- What expenses were paid out of this account?
