Sandy is highly efficient, professional and knowledgeable. She is able to establish comfortable rapport with both spouses and has considerable skill as a financial mediator. Sandy has the knowledge and experience needed to quickly ascertain your personal financial potential futures based on proposed settlements. I wish I had known about her services prior to hiring an attorney. We could have saved tens of thousands of dollars by working out the finances with Sandy rather than having the attorneys argue. If you are considering divorce, I highly recommend you talk with Sandy before the attorneys are involved. Hindsight is 20/20. - Diane Dorsa - Franklin

I’m divorced and so, I speak from experience as I write this review and encourage you to talk with Arons & Associates before your talk with a divorce attorney. If you haven’t already figured it out, the law is pretty straight forward. Assets and debts are divided 50/50, child support is a formula created by the state and alimony is math… How much does one spouse need and how much can the other afford to pay. That’s a math problem not a sophisticated legal issue. I spent lots of time and cash with attorneys during my divorce because I did not know what else to do. Then, I met Sandy and she helped me understand just how straight forward the divorce settlement and child custody issues were. She helped to keep me calm by explaining the these topics with straight forward language in a kind and compassionate way that was always supportive. If you or someone you know is thinking about divorce, you and they would be wise to contact Sandy Arons as your first step. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Sandy worked with my husband and I throughout our divorce proceedings, and I would highly recommend her to anyone going facing similar circumstances. I found her to be knowledgeable and professional, and her mediation saved us a lot of money. Divorce is a very difficult time for everyone involved, and Sandy is willing to ride the storm with you. She listens, she mediates, she makes adjustments, and she'll get you to the other side. I highly recommend her! Thank you Sandy

My ex and I were amicably divorcing after working on things in couple's therapy for several years. Sandy understood where we were from the beginning and helped us figure out what life would look like financially for both households after the divorce and how to best structure custody of our two teenagers. She is familiar with the processes, the court system, and property division and helped us navigate all of that. She also referred us to other excellent professionals to help with specific aspects of the process. Working with her dramatically reduced both the cost and the drama of the divorce. We had previously attempted to do a collaborative divorce with other mediators and felt like they were over-complicating the process, dragging it out, driving up the expense and creating conflict where there was none. With Sandy, it felt like she was someone who understood what we were going through and was there to help us get through a painful process as easily as possible.

Thank you, Sandy for being so good at what you do and taking such an interest in helping families. It is great to know you are there as a trusted resource for my clients, friends and family.

I've worked with Sandy for over 8 years. She's very precise with her clients and has extreme attention to detail when it comes to anyone seeking divorce advice or actually divorcing. I've found that many people that I've helped who go thru divorce do not receive good financial advice. Especially with regards to their assets, their pending real estate decisions, advice on their credit and co-signed debts when working with conventional divorce attorneys and mediators. Sandy, however, advises clients in all of the necessary areas of their finances in order to have them fully ready for their next phase in life once their divorce is complete.

Many of my clients over the past several years have used the services of Arons and Associates Divorce Planning and they consistently give them glowing reviews. Clients tell me Sandy really understands the financial and tax aspects of divorce and explains the information in a manner that is always very helpful, practical and professional. She obviously really cares about her clients, their families and their well-being. Most importantly, Sandy helps clients make smart financial choices and avoid the typical divorce fear, drama and excessive legal fees. I am so glad to have Sandy and Arons & Associates as a valuable resource for my clients. - Maleah Stephens, CFP®

As a family law attorney, I've found Sandy Arons' services to be an invaluable asset to my clients and my practice. Sandy is a consummate professional and has been a critical element in both helping my clients navigate the financial realities of divorce and reaching mutually agreeable outcomes. I cannot speak highly enough of her.

"I wish I had met and hired Sandy a year ago! " My divorce was final this past June and I was not aware of some of the financial and tax repercussions. I felt that SHE was what was missing during the process... its such an emotional time and there are only so many new things you can learn during it. I highly recommend Aron and Associates to protect your finances and help you navigate your new life...

I can recommend Sandy Arons in the strongest terms possible. We had a long divorce because of its complexity, and Sandy made this difficult period as manageable as possible. It is absolutely true that divorce is about division of assets, and this has nothing to do with lawyers, who only serve to obfuscate and to pit one party against another. And lawyers don’t care about fairness or even what money is left to the key people involved: the couple. They too often get caught up in “winning” and one-upmanship, and in justifying their existence with meaningless legal wrangling, which only serves to reduce the assets of the couple and build up legal fees. Sandy’s method involves fairness and openness. She works out the finances – and this can be difficult – so that the legal aspects are simply follow up and pro forma. She is neither “for” one or the other, and is patient and knowledgeable. While not an attorney, she is well versed in the key legal aspects. In fact, more than knowledgeable, in our case she fought to have legal costs reduced, and she actively fought with the attorneys to resist outright interference by them that would have done nothing but increase legal fees to them substantially without any change in the situation whatsoever. She was incredible. Sandy went far above and beyond being a simple financial analyst for the divorce. She was a leavening guide who cared about the parties involved, cared about what was best for them, cared about creating an agreement that was fair and therefore lasting, and cared about trying to leave as much money in the pockets of the parties as possible, including her own extremely reasonable fees.

I am a family law attorney and have worked with Sandy on quite a number of cases and always found her to be extremely professional, thorough, and helpful in her mediation practice. She is able to get clients to focus on the financial aspects in the divorce process as well as focusing on the best interests of their minor children. She doesn't take one party's side or the other, and is able to look at both sides objectively and help the parties reach an agreement and move on with their lives. I highly recommend her and would give her ten stars if I could.

Sandy was very helpful during my divorce process. She stayed factual, unbiased and also very supportive. Sandy was a recommendation to my ex and me and I'd happily recommend her as well!
