Comments
For the people who have to go through it, divorce is often the largest financial transaction and most emotionally traumatic transition that they will make in their lifetime. Understanding the outcome of possible options helps to manage the FEAR that is caused by the UNKNOWN. I work with my clients and their collaborative team to help them make INFORMED rather than EMOTIONAL decisions by showing them how different settlement scenarios will affect their family's financial future.
