50% of What? Find Clarity in Your Divorce Settlement
Dividing marital assets isn’t as simple as “50/50.” What exactly does 50% include? What exceptions apply? And how do support and tax implications factor in?
Separation involves a maze of financial decisions—asset division, spousal support, child support, and tax impacts—all of which require thoughtful consideration. Beyond numbers, there are non-financial priorities that influence a balanced settlement.
Since 2020, I’ve helped individuals and couples, alongside their legal teams, navigate the financial complexities of separation. While lawyers focus on protecting your legal rights, I bring specialized expertise in the financial and tax aspects of divorce. Together, we’ll reduce risks, clarify your options, and ensure you understand the implications of every decision.
In Collaborative Practice, a low-conflict approach to separation, I act as a neutral financial specialist, working with both spouses, their lawyers, and family professionals to craft fair, workable solutions tailored to your unique situation. Fairness isn’t just about splitting assets—it’s about creating a settlement that meets your needs and priorities.
Outside of Collaborative Practice, I also work directly with individuals, couples, or their mediator to complete disclosures, support calculations, and statements. I also help in developing settlement solution options that meet the needs of the family.
Your Path to a Fair Settlement
Quantifying “half” is just the start. A fair financial resolution may involve adjustments to achieve balance across assets, support, and other considerations. Let me guide you toward a settlement that reflects your goals and values—a solution that feels fair to you.
Take the First Step
Schedule a free, no-obligation 20-minute consultation to explore your options and start moving forward. If you and your spouse prefer a neutral starting point, consider an Initial Joint Consultation to gain an understanding of the various separation process options – ideally before selecting legal representation.
