We are different to other Financial Planners because you aren't like other clients.
If you are thinking of separating or you already have, then financial certainty is necessary. Financial Planners are not just there to provide advice on stocks and bonds but to also provide solutions for your complex situation. To Talk about you and what your needs and wants are. Your needs and wants will be different to when you were married and a new strategy for you, can be put in place easily to ensure your new blueprint is clear.
A Financial Planner can help you simplify financial data, helping you to educate yourself about money, build confidence and help you take control at a time of great uncertainty. It's important to make your financial decisions before a settlement or negotiations have started as your financials need to be identified so that all your options are considered.
Having a team work with you as part of the divorce process simply makes sense, and allows you to make more informed settlement decisions. It's much more productive than being alone and making uneducated guesses. After settlement, there is little to no room to do things differently.
What makes them stand out from the crowd is that they have both gone through a Divorce. They have both dealt with custody, asset splits, child maintenance trusts, refinancing, income splits and every other emotion that goes along with a Divorce.
