Explaining separation and divorce: Finding the path to financial closure

Separation and divorce are often the result of long and deliberate decision-making processes, sometimes spanning years. As a Chartered Financial Divorce Specialist, A.C. Dyck has observed that while the decision to separate is often made quickly, the division of assets and finances can take significantly longer. Each case is unique, influenced by priorities such as custody arrangements, the disposition of the marital home, or involvement in shared business ventures. A.C. Dyck’s role is to guide couples toward a fair 50/50 division of assets, tailoring strategies to suit individual circumstances and ensure equitable outcomes.

Under Canada's Divorce Act, couples typically separate for a year before filing for a no-fault divorce, using this time to negotiate financial arrangements. A.C. Dyck emphasizes the importance of reaching financial closure efficiently to help individuals transition to the next chapter of their lives with confidence. While supportive of marriage as a cornerstone of a strong society, they believe that when divorce becomes necessary, it should be handled cleanly, quickly, and effectively, as future financial stability often depends on it.
