Dianne Nolin | Featured in The Washingtonian

There's a growing phenomenon in the Virginia and DC area of cross-income marriages - marriages where the pay gap between spouses is noticeable. Unfortunately, the harsh reality is that with steep differences in assets and pay in a marriage, coupled with a surge of women achieving more high-powered careers, we're seeing six- and seven-figure women finding themselves paying high alimony to their ex-spouses following a divorce.

We were so proud to see our very own Dianne Nolin, CFP®, CERTIFIED DIVORCE FINANCIAL ANALYST™, Managing Partner & Private Wealth Advisor, featured in the Washingtonian cover story sharing some insights on the ramifications high-earning women could face during a divorce. In this article "More and More Women Are Paying Alimony to Failure-to-Launch Ex-Husbands. And They’re Really, Really Not Happy About It", author Jessica Goldstein explores how the traditional concept of alimony is shifting, especially when there are high-net-worth women involved.

Cecile Hult | Featured Newsweek Expert

While no one who gets married is anticipating a divorce, statistics don't lie - 1 in 2 marriages end with divorce. Divorce is unfortunately a feasible outcome of marriage and those numbers only rose in the last two years with the Pandemic. We understand that making financial plans for a divorce when you're not planning on divorcing your spouse can feel taboo, but as leaders in high net worth divorce we have seen what can happen if you don't have a plan in place while you're still happily married.

We were thrilled that our own Cecile Hult, CFP®, CDFA®, Partner & Private Wealth Advisor was featured as an expert for Newsweek sharing her knowledge on future-planning and divorce. Cecile's article "Taboo Financial Planning: How To Insure Against a Divorce" smartly explores how those who are married should be future-proofing their financial plan by preparing for the worst case scenario.
