Today,
fifty percent of marriages end in divorce. Divorce is almost always
an extremely traumatic experience. One of the major problems encountered
is obtaining a fair financial settlement, and also planning the
financial future of the parties involved. Many things need to be
considered in making these life changing decisions. Working with
you and your attorney, Gene Fuehrer, CPA, CVA, CDFA, a divorce financial
specialist, will:
-
help make sense of the complex financial issues involved,
-
participate in resolving them by helping you understand what
you are agreeing to,
- will
work with either or both parties (including attorneys) in an
effort to create a fair settlement, and
- also
help plan your financial future.
Gene
is certified specialist in this delicate area of financial human
interaction and will help to allay your concerns and make your
experience less traumatic.
The
rest of your life will be affected by the decisions made and agreed
to during a divorce. It is important to note that:

men continue to live on an increasing salary while women often
use their remaining assets to supplement their expenses.

vs. marital property need to be taken into account.

security of any children is a major concern,

is very important to not allow emotions to cloud the decision
making process and that is why a specialist is so important.
