Why us

Our Head of Financial Planning Tamsin Caine launched Smart Divorce following her own experience with divorce. Tamsin understands the fear, anxiety and challenges that divorce triggers; but she also knows how to overcome these and achieve long-term happiness in this new chapter of your life.

With the uncertainty surrounding the outcomes, it’s easy to see divorce as a closed door. However, we believe you have an opportunity to create a new life for yourself post-divorce, and we want to instil a sense of opportunity in everyone we work with. With our help to get your finances in order, our goal is to equip you with a new sense of confidence.

As our name suggests, here at Smart Divorce we specialise exclusively in financial planning for people who are divorcing or separating. Not only are we highly experienced in managing the essential financial housekeeping, but we also have the skills and knowledge required to create a personalised strategy that will help you achieve a happy and successful future post-divorce.

Tamsin is a Chartered Financial Planner and a Fellow of the Personal Finance Society. She also has a master’s degree in Business Management & Financial Planning. Tamsin has over 15 years’ experience in the financial services profession and specialises in divorce.

Our clients’ wellbeing matters to us; it’s why we do what we do. Our clients are always at the forefront of our minds (we admit, we often wake up in the middle of the night thinking about them!) and we always advise from a place of care; we take time to listen to and answer the questions you are bound to have.

We are here to guide you every step of the way as you navigate divorce. We plan carefully to make sure we cover each concern: everything from paying the bills today to retiring on your own terms in years to come. We take a holistic view and account for every future challenge.

We believe that a collaborative approach leads to successful divorce planning. Whether that’s with your spouse, partner, your mortgage adviser or your lawyer, we strive to build connections with the important players involved in your divorce. We believe that a streamlined, collaborative process will result in the most successful outcome.

We are dedicated to achieving your desired outcomes, but we’re not going to simply tell you what it is you want to hear. We set realistic expectations and work closely with you to achieve them, avoiding unrealistic calculations and instead mapping out a practical plan to best assure your family’s future happiness.

Whilst your finances may well be at the forefront of your mind, we know that divorce isn’t just about money. We work with you to create a lifestyle plan that is in line with your personal goals. We believe that divorce shouldn’t be a barrier to obtaining the life you’ve always wanted; we help you achieve your day-to-day ideals as well as your long-term aspirations.
