With BDF, You’re Among Friends
It takes one to know one.
Unless you’ve been through a divorce, it’s hard to understand the lows, the demands, and the intense energy it can take out of you.
Heather Locus, founder and leader of BDF’s Divorce Practice Group, found out the truth of this when she personally went through a divorce herself. This first-hand experience compelled her to start a dedicated group focused just on divorcing individuals- so people like you can get the individualized and nuanced specialization and support you need to go through the process with the least hassle and stress.
Our knowledgeable and caring team have resources to help you far beyond the financial side of divorce, including:
- The BDF ClearPath Roadmap for Navigating Divorce.
- When I Do Becomes I Don’t: Five Strategies for a Financially Responsible Divorce webinar.
- Financial Issues In Divorce, a handbook to help you understand, organize and manage all the practical aspects of divorce.
- An exclusive divorce column for Forbes, packed with tips and valuable insights.
Divorce can be a scary road to travel. With specialized help, you can navigate that road with strength, understanding and clarity. And we’re here to support you do exactly that!
