Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®
A Certified Divorce Financial Analyst (CDFA®) specializes in the financial issues surrounding divorce. A CDFA® can act as a financial neutral/mediator for you and your spouse or, if you can’t resolve your issues without attorneys, the CDFA® can work as an advocate on your divorce team, providing financial analysis and support to your case.
