The financial issues inherent to every divorce case are often times the ones that are the most overlooked. However, once a divorce settlement has been signed, it’s too late to change it.
Who should keep the house? How much will it cost to live after divorce? How much alimony will there be and for how long? Will the custody arrangement affect child support? How can the retirement accounts be split and the money accessed? How can a business be offset? Should a business be valued? What is the value of health care benefits? Most important of all, will the clients be able to financially survive (and thrive) with the settlement post divorce?
Certified Divorce Financial Analysts™ are trained to answer these questions for men and women in the process of divorce and to provide litigation support for their lawyer, which may help them settle their case.
