One especially important professional is a child custody evaluator. Choi says, he or she “may recommend a permanent child custody and visitation plan based on his or her analysis of the circumstances surrounding your family amidst the divorce.”
- Vocational: If one spouse has not been working or is underemployed, a vocational expert can help this person evaluate job skills and prospects and make recommendations for possible education needed to be ready for the workforce.
- Income: Having an income expert evaluate the financial situation can help in “establishing appropriate child and spousal support.”
- Real Estate: If a divorcing couple owns real estate together, it is important to have a professional appraisal. This will help dispel arguments as to what each spouse “thinks” the value is. Look for a real estate expert who will “provide a detailed report of the value of the property and also outline comparable” prices.

The complexity of business makes this person critical to assist with the valuation and division of this asset, no matter how the division of labor was split between raising the family and running the business.
