When money issues create heightened stress and conflict in divorce, individuals and couples increasingly seek healthier ways to navigate the process. As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA®), I help clients and attorneys explore the short- and long-term real costs of divorce to develop a realistic view of their post-divorce financial situation.
I help clients understand personal vs. marital property, property valuation, options for dividing retirement plans and pensions, and how to navigate spousal and child support. I can also serve as a financial neutral for cooperative couples.
As a financial advisor and divorce analysis professional, I offer the guidance, knowledge, and tools to help divorcing couples make better-informed financial decisions and prepare for financial independence.
