Fee-only advisors for divorced individuals
Divorced individuals frequently arrive needing a full re-plan after a decade or more of joint planning. The work spans rebuilding cash-flow assumptions, revisiting retirement timelines, coordinating new beneficiaries, untangling support-payment tax treatment, and getting back to a household plan that reflects the new shape of life. Many specialty advisors here hold the CDFA designation.
