Every family is unique, just like every person is unique. They have a specific set of circumstances, history, lifestyle and financial situation.

Every family is different and every family’s finances are different. 

• Do they have a lot of assets?
• Does one person pay all the bills?
• What is their monthly cash flow?
• What special expenses do they have?
• Do they have savings?
• Does one person make all the financial decisions?
• Are their credit cards maxed out?
• Do they maintain a family budget?

The economics of the family and the way people manage their finances affects the relationship before separation, the separation process, and the relationship after separation.
