“I don’t work in emotions. I work in entries. But divorce is where the stories behind the numbers matter most.”
When people say, “It’s not about the money,” it’s always about the money. The house. The accounts. The mysterious Venmo transfers and the LLC someone started three months before filing.
I’ve been doing forensic accounting for 15 years. I’ve rebuilt seven-figure marital estates from iPhone screenshots and Amazon receipts. I’ve traced crypto wallets back to burner phones. I’ve found hidden income in the form of “loan repayments” to cousins who didn’t exist on paper two years ago.
But the hardest part isn’t the deception—it’s the disorganization. People come in with bags of paperwork and tears in their eyes. They know they’re being screwed. They just don’t know how.
I used to spend half my time cleaning data before I could even start analyzing it. Then I had a case where the client used Splitifi. Every bank statement was categorized. Every business transaction was tagged. There was a timeline I didn’t have to build from scratch.
I’ve now used Splitifi as part of three expert witness reports. It’s not just a tool—it’s a financial narrative engine. And in family court, the side with the cleanest narrative usually wins.
I don’t care who’s right or wrong. I care who can prove what actually happened. And in my experience, Splitifi users come in ahead.
