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.
