Divorce and related actions are rife with potential pit falls. For example, do you know how the purchase date of shares of stock can affect the splitting of those shares in a divorce? I work to ensure you are not caught unawares by hidden costs. Likewise, I take over all of the financial declarations and financial analysis so you and your attorney can focus on child custody, visitation, etc. Alternatively, if your divorce is amicable but has some financial sticking points, I can work with both parties to resolve those issues equitably and fairly.
