What Does A Chartered Financial Divorce Specialist Professional Do?
Whether you have a lot of financial knowledge or next to none, you might feel anxious about how separation and divorce will affect your financial well-being, now and in the future. Add to this the other tasks and pressures related to divorce – such as preparing your financial disclosure, dividing up assets and negotiating spousal support – and the process can feel downright overwhelming. Financial Divorce Services is here to help. Financial Divorce Services provides the unbiased advice you need. All our services are transparent, as we do not manage assets. We can work with your advisor and your lawyer to find solutions. You are in control of the process, and we’ll stand beside you to offer guidance and help you make informed decisions at this crucial juncture in your life.
We can assist with:
· Preparation of Legal Financial Disclosure Documents
· Understanding the five different divorce processes and choosing the best one for your family
· Projection of your “half” of the net family property so you can anticipate your future savings needs
· Selecting a new investment advisor, if necessary, to ensure your privacy is respected.
· Exploring your Will and power of attorney considerations.
· Ensuring adequate levels of the right types of insurance if needed
· Budget preparation
· Education cost planning for you or your children
Why work with a Financial Divorce Specialist?
A Financial Divorce Specialist (or “financial coach”) helps you navigate what can be a stressful and complicated process. Truly understanding how negotiations will affect your life as we advance will instill a sense of confidence when signing your separation agreement. Making informed decisions about your finance agreement also brings peace of mind and avoids future stress and disappointment. Also, as a neutral financial advisor, we can work for both parties in the divorce process. This can be a powerful tool during negotiation. Because of in-depth knowledge of family law as well as financial options, a settlement that considers your interests can be explored.
What is Collaborative Law?
Often, in the Collaborative Law Process, lawyers will ask a Chartered Financial Divorce Specialist to be part of the ‘team.’ Because financial professionals bring financial insights, past the family law model, in a cost-effective manner, they are often brought to the negotiation table. They are expected to help answer questions or give solutions considering the client’s interests, finances, cash flow, and tax situation. For more information on Collaborative Law, please click here.

When?
It’s best to involve your Financial Divorce Specialist from the start. As you negotiate your divorce settlement with your legal team or mediator, we can work through the scenarios under discussion to determine your best options.
How much does it cost?
It’s often thought that involving another professional makes the process more costly, but that isn’t always the case. In fact, we provide some services (such as preparing your financial disclosure) at a lower cost than lawyers typically do, and our fee-based approach means that you pay for only the services you need. In the long run, a Financial Divorce Specialist can save you money by avoiding costly mistakes that affect you and your ability to support dependents.
