What is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® (CDFA®)?

A CDFA® is a trained professional certified to provide financial guidance and analysis to individuals going through the divorce process. They specialize in the areas of financial planning, tax law, and the unique financial considerations of divorce.

How can we help?

Capita Financial Network has an in-house CDFA® who helps through the entire divorce process. From beginning to end, here's how Capita will help.

Step 1: Preparing Your Case

Get Organized - Capita will simplify the challenging process of gathering and organizing the information you need for you and your attorney.

Find Hidden Assets - We will help you know where to look to uncover undisclosed assets.

Calculate Difficult Valuations - Because many assets have complex nuances related to valuation, Capita will help you find the proper value of assets, such as pensions, stock options, and commingled separate property.

Save Time and Money - Preparing your case can be time-consuming and expensive. Capita will streamline this important first step for you.

Step 2: Optimizing Your Settlement

Informed Decisions - After Capita gathers and organizes the information, we will provide you with answers to your questions regarding:
  • Property Division - Can I afford to keep the house?
  • Tax Implications - How much will I owe in taxes if we sold the house?
  • Alimony - How can I prove that I have a need for alimony?
  • Child Support - How much will I get/have to pay if I give up more overnights with my kids?
  • Misunderstood Assets - What is a stock option and should I fight for it?

Alternative Scenarios - Capita will model different settlement scenarios to help you understand the short- and long-term financial implications regarding your settlement and know which conditions set you up for a successful financial future.

Peace of Mind -
Will I be okay if I take this settlement? Capita will provide financial clarity and valuable support during this time of stress and worry.

Step 3: Post Divorce

Get Your Money - Capita will help you open the right accounts and file the correct paperwork to transfer the funds into your name.

Create a Plan - Capita has helped people in all stages of life build a path to a stable financial future.  We will develop this plan with you using the resources you receive after the divorce. 

With You Every Step - To live your best life, you need a team to support you along the way.  Capita's team of professionals will help you successfully manage your financial life.
