Social Security is essential in Divorce Planning. Helping your clients navigate Social Security decisions as part of their broader post-divorce strategy can have a lasting impact. Many people don’t realize that there are strategies than can significantly enhance Social Security benefits – often adding thousands of dollars per year to someone’s income.
We will explore how divorce impacts Social Security and how you can help your clients make informed, financially sound decisions during what is often a challenging time.
