Why CDFA?

A Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® (CDFA) can explain all financial aspects of pending divorce decisions and help empower their clients to make educated decisions throughout the process. We become part of the divorce team. We will help figure out what financial information needs to be collected. Once obtained, we are skilled at analyzing the information, providing expertise on financial issues, and assessing future implications of any choices made.

The role of the CDFA® is to help both the client and, when necessary, the lawyers understand how the financial decisions made today will impact the client’s financial future based on certain assumptions, according to the Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts.

Why use a CDFA®?
Outside the legal system, there are options that help navigate the divorce process to keep costs lower and preserve assets. Lawyers know about the law, but a CFDA® brings financial clarity, creativity, and confidence into the settlement negotiation.

A financial advocate will:

  • Help save money during the divorce process.
  • Help manage expectations of the financial future by presenting different scenarios while examining pre- and post-divorce budget/cash flow.
  • Assist in collecting the necessary data and provide an analysis showing the financial effect of any given settlement, including tax consequences.

Don't just survive life's transitions.

Get the right team in your corner so you can thrive in them.
