Navigate Your Divorce with Financial Clarity and Confidence
We are forensic-level divorce financial analysts who help clients and attorneys understand the true cost of every settlement option — so you can move forward with certainty, not regret.
The Emotional Toll of Divorce is High. The Financial Toll Doesn't Have to Be.
Divorce is one of life's most stressful transitions — and most people navigate the financial decisions without a clear picture of the long-term consequences. A settlement that looks fair today can cost you dearly tomorrow.

What to Expect When You Bring a Financial Expert into Your Divorce Team
Divorce teams usually include an attorney and maybe a mediator — but rarely someone focused purely on your financial future. A Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) fills that gap, helping you understand what you're agreeing to before you sign anything.
You Don't Have to Know Everything
If you handed off finances during your marriage, that's okay. We start from wherever you are — no judgment, no catching up required.
Your Attorney Protects Your Rights. We Protect Your Future.
Attorneys are advocates, not financial guides. A CDFA ensures the numbers behind your settlement actually work for your life.
Equal Isn't Always Equal
A 50/50 split can look fair on paper and cost you dearly over time. We model the real long-term impact of every option before you decide.
We Reduce Your Load, Not Add to It
You bring what you have. We handle the financial complexity — documents, scenarios, tax consequences — so you don't have to carry it alone.
Clarity Over Fear
Divorce brings urgency and emotion. We bring structure and long-term thinking so your decisions are grounded, not reactive.
One Conversation Is All It Takes
No documents needed, no questions prepared. A first call is low-stakes, confidential, and obligation-free.
Divorce Financial Glossary
Feeling lost in the legal and financial language of divorce? Here are the key terms you're likely to encounter — explained in plain English.
Marital Estate
All assets and debts acquired during the marriage, regardless of whose name they're in. This is what gets divided in a divorce.
Equitable Distribution
A method of dividing marital property fairly — but not necessarily equally — based on factors like income, contributions, and future needs.
Community Property
In some states, all marital assets and debts are split 50/50. Nine states follow community property laws.
QDRO (Qualified Domestic Relations Order)
A legal order that divides retirement accounts like 401(k)s and pensions between spouses without triggering early withdrawal penalties.
Marital Waste
When one spouse deliberately depletes marital assets (through gambling, reckless spending, or hiding money) before or during divorce proceedings.
Net Present Value (NPV)
The current value of a future stream of income or payments, used to compare assets that pay out over time (like pensions).
Liquidity
How easily an asset can be converted to cash. A retirement account may be worth $200K but isn't liquid — you can't access it without penalties.
Separate Property
Assets owned before marriage, or received as gifts or inheritance during marriage, that are typically excluded from the marital estate.
Imputed Income
Income a court assigns to a spouse based on their earning potential, even if they're not currently earning it — often used in support calculations.
Alimony / Spousal Support
Payments made by one spouse to the other after divorce to help maintain a similar standard of living. Can be temporary or long-term.
Child Support
Court-ordered payments from one parent to the other to cover a child's living expenses, education, and healthcare.
Buyout
When one spouse pays the other for their share of an asset (like the family home) in order to keep it.
Dissipation of Assets
Similar to marital waste — the misuse or squandering of marital assets by one spouse, often considered by courts during division.
CDFA (Certified Divorce Financial Analyst)
A financial professional trained specifically to help clients understand the financial implications of divorce settlement options.
