Divorce Consultant

If you are going through or thinking about a divorce, you’ll have questions. But finding the right sort of divorce assistance can be challenging.  That’s why one of the services I offer is “divorce consultant.”

Friends and family are often well-meaning but misinformed.  You might be reluctant to get a lawyer involved.  They could be expensive and might try to steer you in the direction of becoming a client.

There’s lots of information on the internet but it can be challenging to distill it down to your exact situation.

Divorce is such an important life event.  It’s best for you to be clear, well-informed and confident.

Divorce Consultant

Ideally, there would be someone to talk to who knows the territory and who can succinctly answer your questions without charging you a bundle.  Their knowledge should include everything relevant to divorcing.  They should know divorce procedure, the relevant law and the financial and tax ramifications of divorce.  It’s hard to find such a person.

As a divorce consultant, I fill in your information gaps so that you are better empowered to make your own decisions.  If relevant, I explain things you didn’t ask but should understand.

Many times an hour is all that’s required.  My charges are modest.

I have over 12 years of experience as a divorce mediator and Certified Divorce Financial Analyst.  My website has over 200 articles, all written by me, addressing all facets of getting a divorce or legal separation in California.
