Setting Divorce Settlement Financial Goals…
One of the first activities that a client should focus their attention to accomplish is determining goals to achieve at and beyond settlement. Goals normally involve some combination of reducing legal expenses, optimizing financial settlement value, expediting settlement, minimizing future financial risk, and limiting damaging innuendo.
Deriving Divorce Issues from Goals…
Issues for focus then will flow from your goals. Examples of issues may include specifics such as recovering lost income, protecting retirement assets, proving/quantifying financial need, affording the family home, and avoiding trial. Baron Analytics understands the types of issues that may be at stake and can help you define, refine, and achieve your goals. We also can work with you and your attorney to identify the issues for which we will focus.
Using Goals to Better Manage Costs…
To ensure we maximize the attainment of your goals at minimum cost, we communicate clear tactics and results with you, so you know what we will do, when we would do it, and approximately how much it would cost you. You should know this before you spend a penny for our analysis, and we typically include an initial list of our anticipated analysis in our retainer agreements. You are informed and in control. Baron Analytics recognizes that nobody likes surprises, and while you are undergoing such an important event, you cannot afford surprises.
