Nancy is a Certified Financial Divorce Analyst, and an active member of Collaborative Professionals of Phoenix, an organization comprised of attorneys, mental health professionals and financial professionals who have been trained in the Collaborative Divorce Process. A Collaborative Divorce, the process of reaching a divorce settlement without going to court, is fairly novel and brings 3-4 professionals to the fore front of your case at the very beginning. Each spouse is represented by their own attorney, trained in the collaborative process. The other neutral professionals may include a certified financial analyst and a coach with therapist certification who may help with child custody decisions and other emotionally charged issues and who often guides the full team meetings.
