Avoiding Common Divorce Financial Pitfalls

Without expert analysis, it’s easy to overlook crucial financial details like the long-term tax implications of asset division or accurately valuing a pension. A CDFA helps prevent these costly mistakes. We work to identify and address these potential pitfalls, ensuring your settlement is not only fair today but also sustainable for your future health.

Understanding San Diego’s Community Property Laws

California’s community property laws require a 50/50 division of marital assets, which can be complex. A CDFA with localized San Diego knowledge is vital for accurately identifying and valuing these assets, from real estate to retirement accounts. Our expertise ensures the division is compliant with state law and truly equitable for both parties involved.
