What a CDFA Does
The designation of Certified
Divorce Financial Analysts™ is awarded by The Institute for
Certified Divorce Financial Analysts (IDFA) to individuals who successfully complete
the training and test requirements set by IDFA. IDFA is the premier national organization
dedicated to the certification, education and promotion of the use of financial
professionals in the divorce arena.
The financial issues inherent to
every divorce case are often times the ones that are the most overlooked. However, once a
divorce settlement has been signed, it’s too late to change it.
Who should keep the house? How
much will it cost to live post divorce? How much alimony is there going to be and for how
long? Will the custody arrangement affect child support? How can the retirement accounts
be split and the money accessed? How can a business be offset? Should a business be
valued? What is the value of health care benefits? Most important of all, will the clients
be able to financially survive (and thrive) with the settlement post divorce?
Certified Divorce Financial
Analysts™ are trained to answer these questions and more for men and women in the
process of divorce and to provide litigation support for their attorneys, which help them
prove and often settle their case.
