Learning Objectives

  • Identify key financial issues that arise in later-life separation.
  • Analyze how asset division, retirement income, and liquidity needs affect post-divorce planning.
  • Evaluate estate planning considerations involving titling, beneficiaries, and heirs.
  • Assess planning risks related to cash flow, account ownership, and legacy goals.
  • Apply practical communication strategies to support coordinated financial and estate planning decisions.

Course Overview

Gray divorce can create significant financial planning challenges because later-life separation often affects retirement income, household cash flow, asset ownership, insurance needs, and long-term wealth transfer goals. This course focuses on the financial and estate planning issues that arise when clients separate later in life and need coordinated guidance around money, property, and legacy decisions.

Participants will explore how divorce in later life can affect retirement assets, beneficiary designations, estate documents, liquidity planning, and family wealth protection. The course also highlights the importance of reviewing titling, account ownership, and communication among family members and professional advisors to reduce confusion and protect client intentions.

Major Topics:

  • Financial planning issues in gray divorce.
  • Retirement income and asset division concerns.
  • Estate planning implications of later-life separation.
  • Titling, beneficiary, and account ownership reviews.
  • Liquidity, cash flow, and long-term planning risks.
  • Family communication and heir protection strategies.

By connecting financial planning with estate considerations, this course helps professionals identify planning gaps, support informed client conversations, and address the practical implications of later-life separation. Attendees will gain a clearer framework for helping clients preserve financial stability, protect heirs, and align post-divorce planning with long-term goals.
