When you realize you are headed toward a divorce, you might feel overwhelmed before the process even begins. Hiring the right professional to advise you and be by your side throughout can make a big difference in your entire experience.
Going through a divorce can be overwhelming financially just as much as emotionally. In Illinois, issues like property division, spousal support, and child support often involve complex financial matters, and some people find that they would appreciate consulting with a Certified Public Accountant (CPA) or a court-appointed financial expert. At The Law Offices of Curtis Bennett Ross, L.L.C., our Illinois divorce lawyer is also a court-appointed financial expert and a CPA, and the legal guidance he can offer is invaluable.
What Does a Court-Appointed Financial Expert Do?
A court will typically appoint a financial expert to a divorce case when financial matters that can impact the proceedings need to be assessed and given an impartial analysis. Whether clarification is needed for the division of assets, spousal support, or other monetary disputes, their knowledge can significantly streamline decisions.
