DIVORCE /SPOUSAL EARNING CAPACITY mail.gif (1080 bytes) info@adato.com

The purpose of a Vocational Expert in divorce litigation is to determine the earning capacity of a spouse or a plan for increasing that earning capacity when alimony or child support must be calculated. If an individual has a long term, salaried job, this is a simple task, however, this rarely is the case when earning capacity is a litigated issue.

Through evaluation and research, a Vocational Expert can determine:

* Current Labor Market Value of an individual's skills and talents

* Ability to be retrained in higher paying work with a more promising future (rehabilitative alimony)

* Comparable values of work skills when an individual is self-employed but showing a business loss

* Feasibility and value of Self-Employment
