CFP®-certified, divorce financial planning financial advisors in Clearwater, FL

The right financial advisor for you depends on how you weigh location, expertise, experience, the clients they typically serve, and how they work with you.

Divorce financial planning is crucial when you're navigating the financial complexities of ending a marriage, such as dividing assets or managing ongoing expenses. Without a focused approach, you might overlook tax implications or miss opportunities to protect your future financial security. CFP® certification means these advisors have formal training in financial planning, including divorce-related issues.

  • Asset division insight. Ask how they help balance short-term needs with long-term goals when splitting property and investments.
  • Tax impact awareness. Confirm they consider federal taxes and Florida's unique tax environment, including property and sales taxes.
  • Cash flow management. Look for guidance on budgeting for new living expenses and potential support payments.
  • Homestead protection knowledge. Ensure they understand Florida's strong homestead laws and how these affect your financial planning post-divorce.

Here are top matches to get you started. Review each profile to compare experience, credentials, and approach.

Not sure where to start?

We'll help you think it through—whether you ultimately need an advisor or not. Warmer helps you compare advisors clearly, so you can choose with confidence.

Find your advisor

For advisor listings, we rely on sources including public filings and data provided by advisors, and we cannot guarantee that all information is current or accurate. Advisors are independent and may not have reviewed or updated this information. Please review an advisor’s Form ADV and do your own diligence before deciding whether to work with them.

Advisor matching and introductions are provided by FinanceHQ LLC (“FHQ”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Warmer and an SEC-registered investment advisor. We receive compensation from certain participating advisors for introductions or referrals. This creates a conflict of interest because we have an incentive to recommend advisors who compensate us, including those who pay us more. You pay no fee to use our matching service, and advisor fees are not increased because of a referral or introduction. We do not review the ongoing performance of advisors, manage or hold assets, guarantee performance, or provide advice about specific investments.
