Pre-settlement Analysis
A full financial analysis of a proposed divorce settlement before it's signed, including tax-adjusted division comparisons and post-divorce cash flow projections.
Most settlements look fair on paper. That’s the problem.
A pre-settlement analysis takes the proposed terms — asset division, spousal and child support, retirement account splits, real estate treatment — and runs them through tax-adjusted modeling. The output is a side-by-side comparison of what each party actually receives after taxes, and a five-to-ten year cash flow projection for both sides under the proposed terms.
What’s included
- Inventory and characterization review (marital vs. separate)
- Tax-adjusted asset division comparison
- Cash flow projection (income, expenses, support, taxes)
- Identification of items that need legal language adjustments
- Written report suitable for review with your attorney
What it isn’t
This analysis does not replace legal counsel. Final decisions about whether to accept proposed terms remain with you and your attorney. The analysis gives both of you the financial picture in clear language; the legal strategy stays in your attorney’s hands.
