Christina Lynn
MS, CFP™, CDFA®, AFC®
Divorce Financial Expert
Hello, my name is Christina Lynn; as a divorce financial expert, I provide strategy and clarity to all financial matters that pertain to divorce. I had to learn the hard way – during my divorce, I was oblivious to our financial situation, and I was unprepared for the two life-altering areas that were about to collide. I had no idea that I needed a lawyer AND a divorce financial expert. If I knew then, what I know now, I would have handled the entire process differently. Today, I am passionate about working with my clients to connect the dots between these two areas and providing financial clarity and strategy while creating a solid foundation for their financial future.
My Mission
My mission is to educate and advocate for you while navigating the financial aspects of your divorce. Divorce is the most considerable economic change in your life. Do not depend on nondivorce financial experts to help you through the financial negotiations. There is too much on the line.
Do you know that how a property settlement is structured has significant implications for your financial future? The structure is so nuanced that it requires specialized help. I am qualified as a:
- Certified Financial Planner™
- Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®
- Accredited Financial Counselor®
- Certified Estate Planner®
- Master’s degree in Family Financial Planning
- Currently working towards a Ph.D. in Personal Financial Planning.

Divorce Financial Consultation
Who would benefit from a Divorce Financial Consultation?
Cost for the Consultation: $130
In the initial consultation, I want to hear about your situation and what you need help with. I will be able to offer you valuable advice from a divorce financial perspective within the first hour. I will also explain how I recommend proceeding in your unique situation. In some cases, people need a few tips that I can give in the initial consultation.
If you have not yet begun the divorce process and want to know how to be prepared, I will help you navigate your post-divorce finances.
If you are preparing for mediation, you need to understand which documents you should bring with you and why. I will demystify the details of your marital finances so that you can advocate for yourself during the mediation process.
If you have begun the divorce process but are curious about what a Divorce Financial Expert would say regarding the divorce property settlement, support amount, or duration.
If you are considering divorce and are overwhelmed with financial concerns.
If you have already divorced, but you need to set yourself up for financial success.
Divorce Financial Analysis Report
In certain divorce cases, it makes sense to obtain formal Divorce Financial Analysis Reports.
One Time Fee: $1300
Please expect to sign a contract, provide financial data via online software, and pertinent financial statements for the Divorce Financial Analysis Report meeting.
When would this be helpful?
If you are wondering: what’s my “bottom line” in negotiations? What’s the minimum I should agree to?
If during the divorce transition you are unsure whether you are missing something with regards to the assets and debts being split. Is it indeed fair, or is there something you are not aware of?
If you question whether the proposed arrangement is enough to pay your monthly expenses and provide for your financial future post-divorce? Will you be able to make it on your own post-divorce if you agree to this property settlement or support amount?
If you think your divorce case may escalate to court and want a financial expert to provide evidence and/or testify as an expert witness.
If you attempt to settle the divorce amicably but want to assure that the financial arrangement is considered fair.
If your spouse is difficult regarding the finances.
If you or your spouse own a small business.
If you have a high-net-worth or your assets/debts are complicated.
If divorce negotiations are tense and you need a fiduciary to provide neutral, expert advice and summaries of the financials.
