Yes, all of our services, including the Divorce Financial Portrait™, are available in all 50 US States. 

 

Yes! We love working with client(s) who’ve connected to a professional divorce team.  Our work does not replace attorneys or mediators.  We are additive – not replacements. 

The Divorce Financial Portrait™ streamlines the expensive Discovery and Settlement phases, but it doesn’t replace the work divorce professionals do to represent your interests and negotiate on your behalf. 

The Divorce Financial Portrait™ puts you in control in your divorce and gives your attorney / mediator a clear financial plan to securing your financial future.

 

No matter which way you get divorced, The Divorce Financial Portrait™ will always be the best way to prepare for divorce because it puts you in control with the financial insights needed to make clear, confident negotiation decisions. 

Yes, in most cases, divorce attorneys and mediators are an essential part of the divorce process.  The Divorce Financial Portrait™ is not a replacement for legal representation.  The Divorce Financial Portrait™ is a personalized financial divorce plan that you provide your attorney / mediator so they understand what’s important to you.

We recommend everyone develop a professional divorce team specific to the complexity of their divorce. 

We work with anyone going through a divorce. We can work with individuals or families.  Ideally, we support clients at the beginning of the divorce journey, but we also support clients deeply entrenched in legal battles that need a framework for smart financial decisions beyond a net worth statement. 

We’d love to support you if you’re at any of the following stages:

• Considering divorce and looking for information on its impact on your financial future
• Separated and ready to move forward with the division of assets and property
• Entrenched in a contentious legal battle that seems to be going nowhere and in need of expert, third party financial analysis

We are two women who went through divorce, felt “there’s got to be a better way,” and co-founded My Divorce Solution so others don’t have to face divorce like we did – alone, fearful, and uncertain.

Navigating the complex waters of divorce can be challenging, but with the right guidance, it can be a transformative journey towards a brighter financial future. At My Divorce Solution we’re proud to introduce the role of a Divorce Financial Specialist, who takes the expertise of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA) to the next level.
