Is Divorce Mediation for You? | Foundations Divorce Solutions

Coaching | Document Gathering

Individual sessions are scheduled with each party to discuss your interests and give you some coaching on how to make mediation the most successful. You also have time to gather your relevant documents to provide to us via secure, online shared storage.

Take Control of Your Financial Future

Although going through a divorce is difficult, it doesn’t have to be devastating. Make sure that the next chapter of your life begins with a foundation for a sound financial future.

At Foundations Divorce Solutions, we provide clients with the tools and knowledge to ensure them that they understand the financial ramifications of ALL division of assets, liabilities, income and expenses. We also consider and focus on our client’s ability to maintain the liquidity/cash flow to afford the optimal lifestyle after their divorce is settled.

In most cases, nothing can be done to change the financial decisions listed in a divorce decree, after the fact. Therefore, helping a client understand their financial situation before, during and after the divorce can save both money and frustration in the future.
