MONEY
The Challenge
Divorce itself costs, on average 15-20K, however many cases are more contentious and complicated, easily costing over six figures and taking years to recoup. Household income, particularly for women, can drop up to 60% in the immediate years following divorce. Downgrading from a two income to a one income household or having to support two homes can take a huge toll on your finances and retirement.
The Solution
Before you run off pleading poverty, we have some good news! Having a certified divorce financial analyst (CDFA) and financial coach on your team can help ease so much of this anxiety by providing clarity, education and strategy both during your divorce, but also as you budget for your life beyond.
A CDFA can offset ungodly legal fees, by ensuring that your financial house is in order so that your lawyer can stick to the legal logistics of your divorce. And if you were an ostrich that blissfully buried your head in the sand while your spouse took care of the household budget, it's time to wake up and realize that you have what it takes to build financial freedom of your own. Our experienced, award-winning CDFA is an absolute must to have by your side as you grow in financial literacy, magnify your money and maximize your financial future.
