Divorce brings significant financial change and uncertainty. Our Active Divorce Consulting helps you navigate this challenging transition with thoughtful guidance and strategic planning. As a specialist in financial planning for divorcees, we work with you to create financial stability now and build a foundation for your future.
Creating Financial Agency During Divorce
Divorce often places women in the position of managing significant assets for the first time. We provide:
- Clear understanding of assets, liabilities, and cash flow
- Assessment of settlement options and their long-term implications
- Support for fair negotiations with your spouse
- Financial planning around marital settlement agreement
- Financial planning around alimony and spousal maintenance payments
- Coordination with your legal team
At Abeona Wealth, we create a safe space where you can ask questions and gain confidence in your financial decisions during this emotional time.
If a woman is getting divorced or maybe lost a spouse and is now in the position of needing to be at the helm of managing this large asset, it can be incredibly overwhelming, especially at a big transition like divorce or death.
