Violet P. Woodhouse

Family Law Specialist and Certified Financial Planner


A Certified Family Law Specialist based in Newport Beach, Violet P. Woodhouse is one of the nation’s leading authorities on divorce. Ms. Woodhouse is unique among divorce attorneys in that she is also a certified financial planner, which allows her to help clients best navigate the financial implications and tax consequences of divorce. She also has in-depth knowledge of child and spousal support, and state and international child custody issues.
   
Ms. Woodhouse is the author of Nolo’s bestselling book “Divorce & Money: How to Make the Best Financial Decisions During Divorce.” New York Newsday called her book “the most comprehensive financial planning guide for divorcing couples available.” A frequent guest on national radio and television shows, she has been widely quoted in prominent publications, including the Wall Street Journal, New York Times and Los Angeles Times.
   
Ms. Woodhouse earned her law degree from Western State University and her financial planner certificate from USC’s College for Financial Planning. She has been named a Southern California Super Lawyer each year since 2004, an honor awarded to just 3 percent of licensed attorneys. She has also received a BV Distinguished rating by Martindale-Hubble, which indicates her peers rank her at a high level of professional excellence. Ms. Woodhouse received the National Leadership Award from the Republican Congressional Committee and the title of California’s 2004 Business Woman of the Year. Worth Magazine has also named her one of the nation’s top financial advisors for six consecutive years.
   
Ms. Woodhouse says that anyone considering divorce should first gather all documents related to their finances, including individual and business tax returns. Spouses who do not have detailed knowledge of a couple’s finances are at a significant disadvantage, she says.
   
Finding a qualified divorce attorney who understands the economics of divorce is essential, she notes. “It can mean the difference between making financially astute decisions or financial decisions by default,” she says. “Financial decisions made during divorce last a lifetime.”
