Certified Divorce Financial Analyst
The designation of Certified Divorce
Financial Analysts is awarded by The Institute for Divorce Financial Analysts (IDFA) to
individuals who successfully complete the training and test requirements set by the IDFA.
The 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 the ones that are the most overlooked. However, once a divorce
settlement has been signed, its 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 helps them
prove and often settle their case.
