The team that supports you during your divorce is extremely important in determining the outcome – financially, and your ability to move forward emotionally. Based on many years of working with clients going through divorce, I believe that the single most important decision is the assembling a well-reasoned team of professionals, appropriate to your unique situation. As the divorce process will take months or years, personal chemistry is crucial and obviously a requirement, but there are other important considerations as well. As you go through the divorce process you will require support with current and future financial decisions. You also will need financial assistance evaluating various settlement proposals and perhaps expert witness testimony; and, often you will need assistance structuring your financial life going forward.
