A divorce is the breakup of a financial unit as well as the family unit.  To the extent you identify, understand, and effectively deal with the financial pieces of your divorce, you will gain control over your financial future.

Divorce-related financial issues:

• Tax impact of divorce including joint liability, filing status, capital gains considerations, carryovers, alimony, and child support
• Hiding assets and financial fraud
• Identification, valuation, and division of property - marital, inherited, and separate
• Tax impact of division of assets
• Financial impact of the disposition of the family home
• Dividing retirement plans, IRA’s and 401(k)’s and the use of Qualified Domestic Relations Orders (QDRO’s)
