Do you offer complimentary consultations?

30-minute complimentary consultations via Zoom or phone are offered to understand your situation. There's no pressure or commitment, just a chance to ask questions and gain clarity.

Can a CDFA® help me decide whether to keep the house in a divorce?

Yes. A CDFA® can model the financial trade-offs of keeping or selling a home, including projecting mortgage costs, taxes, maintenance, and how it impacts your cash flow and retirement savings.

I already have a financial advisor. Can I still work with a CDFA®?

Yes. A CDFA® can work alongside an existing financial advisor to provide specialized guidance during divorce. The focus is on helping individuals understand the financial impact of various settlement options and bringing clarity to decisions that may affect long-term financial wellbeing.

What can a CDFA® do that differs from an attorney?

A CDFA® provides financial clarity throughout the divorce process by analyzing settlement options, projecting future outcomes, and identifying potential pitfalls. While an attorney focuses on legal representation, a CDFA® offers financial insight to help ensure decisions are informed, realistic, and aligned with long-term goals.

Do I need to live in Colorado Springs to work with you?

No. While Rebecca is based in Colorado, clients are located nationwide. CDFA® services are offered virtually, making it easy to work together from anywhere.

When should I involve a CDFA® in the divorce process?

Ideally, you should involve a CDFA® as early as possible in the divorce process. Having financial clarity from the beginning helps you and your attorney or mediator make more informed decisions, avoid costly mistakes, and prepare settlement options that are realistic and sustainable long term.
