Why Budget Planning Matters in Uncontested Divorce
Dividing Resources Between Two Households
Dividing the resources from one home into two is always challenging and it can be emotional as well. Our One Lawyer Divorce Method helps mitigate that emotion by guiding both spouses to develop a clear understanding of their monthly expenses after separation. Understanding income and expenses in each separated household clarifies how child support and spousal support payments contribute to monthly budgets. For couples pursuing an uncontested divorce in Alberta, transparent budget planning reduces conflict around financial support.
Forecasting Future Expenses During Separation
Budget planning and 6-12 month financial forecasting help couples capture periodic expenses and avoid financial surprises during their uncontested divorce. If you know your kids are going to need haircuts every six weeks we can factor that in. If you know summer camp is going to be the childcare plan for those two months then let’s build it into the budget. Our flat-fee uncontested divorce model includes comprehensive budget review as part of the Standard and Comprehensive plans.
Financial Clarity for Your Post-Separation Life
One Family Law aims to provide separating couples with a comprehensive financial roadmap for the 6-12 months following their divorce agreement. Accurate budget planning provides essential financial stability as families transition to separate households.
