Scott Levin is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst which is a rare and difficult certification to achieve. It means that we specialize in divorce financial planning and analysis to help individuals achieve favorable settlements and secure their financial future. To become a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA), candidates must successfully complete three exams and a comprehensive case study on the financial, tax, and legal issues of divorce and possess at least three years of qualifying work experience. The CDFA is issued by the Institute of Divorce Financial Analysts, the premier national organization dedicated to the certification and education of financial professionals in the divorce arena. Founded in 1993, the IDFA provides specialized training to accounting, financial, and legal professionals in the field of divorce financial planning.

Scott benefits from his association through ongoing training and monthly networking opportunities with other full-time mediators during which these experts exchange ideas about cases and keep up-to-date on the newest trends.
