What is a CDFA?
If you’ve never heard of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® (CDFA), you’re not alone. It’s a bit of a mouthful—but for women navigating separation or divorce, it’s a title that can make all the difference.
A CDFA is a trained financial professional who specializes in the financial side of divorce. This includes:
Analyzing assets and debts
Developing realistic post-divorce budgets
Considering the tax implications of dividing property
Calculating spousal and child support scenarios
Helping you plan for long-term financial stability
It’s a designation that requires rigorous training and ongoing education. To qualify, professionals must already have three or more years of experience in a financial or divorce-specific field.
What sets this support apart is not just the knowledge of numbers, but the ability to translate them into real-life possibilities. Understanding whether you can afford to keep your home, how to manage spousal support, or what your post-divorce life will look like financially is critical. A CDFA doesn’t just crunch numbers—they help you envision and plan for the next chapter of your life with confidence and clarity.
