Divorce Financial Planning Services in Tennessee
Your financial divorce will be a pivotal transition in both your lives. You and your spouse will be making major decisions with far-reaching consequences and will undoubtedly benefit from the expert guidance we provide during the divorce process.
Divorce financial planning helps you both make smarter decisions by providing more clarity for the complex financial decisions that must be made.
At Bridging Divorce Solutions, we help divorcing couples navigate this difficult financial landscape in a respectful, confidential, and affordable manner.
For most couples, divorce may be the most wrenching transition of their lives. The slings and arrows are felt emotionally and financially and it’s easy to allow events to spin out of your control.
You will often be required to make a host of major decisions that will have long-term consequences. Even the most financially sophisticated people often need expert guidance during a divorce.
Brenda Bridges, our Mediator, CDFA®, and Certified Divorce Coach® will help you with the financial planning needed to make the best possible decisions. We point out to you possible pitfalls. And we provide financial guidance that even some attorneys may not always provide.
Make Sound Financial Decisions
The decisions you make during your divorce will affect the rest of your life. Just as important to know is that those same decisions are difficult, if not impossible to change without additional legal expense and court involvement. But how do you know whether your divorce settlement will lead towards financial freedom or financial ruin down the road? In these tough economic times, it’s crucial that you get the right information so that you can make sound financial – not emotional – decisions.
- What if child support doesn’t cover all of your child’s expenses?
- Do you know how much of your spousal support you’ll get to keep after taxes?
- What are the health care benefit options for you and your children?
- Are you really getting the assets you need for your unique circumstances?
- Are you sure you can afford to keep the house?
- Do you understand the tax implications of dividing retirement accounts?
- Do you know that there are a multitude of settlement options that you may not have considered?
Bridging Divorce Solutions will show you how to avoid some of the most common financial mistakes people make during the divorce process – as well as show you the sources of money that may be available to you as a result of your divorce.
