As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, we provide the client and attorney with data analysis that shows the financial effect of any given settlement. I provide support on financial issues such as:

  • Establish spousal and child support.
  • Represent you in court as a financial expert.
  • We can establish what is personal versus marital property.
  • Anchor your position while being an advocate for you.  
  • Assist with tax problems and solutions of multiple settlement proposals.
  • Show you why you may not just want to split the house 50/50.  
  • By valuing and dividing property, we can establish rate of return and market values for different assets.
  • Understanding finances inside and out, we can make sure you understand the financial impacts of different settlement proposals.
  • Helping a client with their interest by producing powerful cash exhibits in the form of reports and graphical representations.
