If you're over 50 and facing divorce in Research Triangle, custody battles aren't your concern—your children are grown. Instead, you're dividing IBM/Cisco stock options, GlaxoSmithKline pharma wealth, UNC/Duke TIAA-CREF pensions, and real estate under North Carolina's equitable distribution.
Research Triangle Park combines tech, pharmaceutical, and three major research universities (UNC, Duke, NC State).
RSUs. Stock options. Deferred compensation. You've heard these terms for years. You know they're valuable.
But do you actually understand what they are? Which ones have vested? Which ones vest after separation? What portion is legally marital property under NC equitable distribution? How are they taxed when exercised vs. when divided?
Your spouse has lived with these compensation statements for 15 years at IBM, Cisco, or Red Hat. They understand vesting schedules, exercise windows, and tax implications.
You're seeing these documents for the first time — while negotiating a settlement that could be worth $500K-$1.5 million.
Research Triangle tech compensation isn't magic. It's complicated — but complicated has solutions. You need someone who can decode the offer letters, translate the vesting schedules, and show you exactly what's yours under North Carolina law.
The difference between understanding tech equity and not? It can easily be $200,000-$400,000 in your final settlement.
