Financial Specialists

In the collaborative process Financial Specialists are brought in to help couples find mutually agreeable financial solutions and answer larger financial questions. They do this while remaining neutral and reliable to separating partners. Some of the questions financial specialists have helped answer are: 

• What asset division will allow both of us to live our best life after separation? 

• How can we financially support two households? 

• What tax consequences occur when dividing assets different ways? 

• How can we strike a balance between alimony payments over time and asset transfers today? 

• What is the value of my pension? 

• How should we value my restricted stock units or options? 

The members of Collaborative Divorce Experts who take on the role of the Financial Specialist are experienced and professionally certified. The financial professionals have participated in Collaborative Divorce training sessions to learn how to adapt their skills to support families in transition.
