Updated: Jan 11

Tax season is here, and for those going through a divorce, your tax refund can play a crucial role in your financial planning. Whether you’re considering mediation, saving for a fresh start, or investing in a new home, making smart decisions about your refund is key.

How Your Tax Refund Can Support Your Divorce Journey

  1. Cover Mediation Costs: Mediation is a cost-effective way to resolve disputes amicably. Your tax refund can help you afford professional mediation services.

  2. Save for Housing: Use your refund as a down payment for a new home or to secure rental housing.

  3. Invest in Financial Planning: Consider using your refund to work with a divorce financial analyst to create a sustainable financial plan.

  4. Pay Down Debt: Reduce high-interest debt to improve your financial stability post-divorce.

How Divorce Mediation Can Help

Mediation allows you to resolve divorce issues collaboratively and with less financial burden than litigation. It’s an effective way to create agreements that benefit both parties while protecting your financial resources.
