Phoenix, AZ -- (SBWIRE) -- 04/26/2016 -- During divorce, both parties need to understand their financial and emotional situations. For decades Stan Corey, Certified Financial Planner™ and author of The Divorce Dance, has been educating divorce clients about their assets, debts, and past and future incomes. He will share information about what people need to know and how they can find the professional support they need during divorce. Hidden income can affect alimony decisions, so they need to know where to look for it. If one spouse has stock options, the other may need help figuring out what they are worth in order to negotiate a fair plan for their Property Settlement Agreement. Retirement accounts can also be confusing, and, because of tax consequences and maintenance expenses, $500,000 worth of equity in a piece of real estate does not have the same financial value as $500,000 in a retirement account.

Stan's novel, The Divorce Dance, tells a story of a stay-at-home mom learning about such financial matters while reeling from her husband's announcement that he wants a divorce and the husband learning new things about financial information he thought he understood while he, too, goes through some emotional changes.
