Not only does divorce or separation exact an emotional toll on the couple and their children, but all too often there are drastic financial problems and issues that arise as well.  The financial issues include the division of property and assets, the sale or transfer of the marital home, alimony and support, as well as the assumption of certain marital debt.

Not surprisingly, when a couple separates, the finances of one or both parties can be greatly impacted.  All too often, a bankruptcy filing for one or both of the spouses can be just around the corner.   The bankruptcy laws have a tremendous potential impact on a divorcing/separating couple and their subsequent financial well-being.

For the second year in a row, attorney Brian Rookard will be giving a pro bono (i.e. – free) presentation at HAVEN (www.haven-oakland.org) on the financial problems and bankruptcy implications that arise out of a divorce or separation.   Brian will be making the presentation for Part 2 of the seminar.

HAVEN provides assistance and guidance to battered and sexually assaulted women.  Resnick Law, P.C. has been a proud supporter of HAVEN and is excited to be back at HAVEN for this wonderful opportunity to help empower women by providing them with the knowledge they need to guide them through a difficult period in their lives.
