What Dr. Barry Bolker Can Do For You


One of Dr. Barry Bolker’s specialties is helping people through the financial uncertainties and difficulties of a divorce or separation. By helping you define your assets and prioritize your spending, he can help you make a smoother transition through this difficult time. His assistance helps you answer difficult questions like: • “Can I afford to keep the house?” • “How do I invest my share of the retirement assets?” • “How must I adjust my expenses now that I’m single?” • “Can I still afford to put the children through college?” In a divorce or separation, Dr. Bolker can serve as either a financial neutral or as an advocate to one of the parties alone. As a financial neutral, he works with both parties together as they negotiate their property settlement. He will help you understand and evaluate the consequences of your financial decisions, and his assistance enables both parties to reach an equitable division of property that serves each of their needs. As an advocate, he assists one spouse – who often has only a passing familiarity with the family’s finances - in working through their pre- and post-divorce financial considerations. By analyzing their income and assets and educating them to better understand the financial situation, he prepares them for the settlement negotiations. Dr. Bolker is a proponent of non-litigated divorce; a process wherein the couple uses either collaboration or mediation to resolve property and child custody issues. He is a former member of the Coalition for Collaborative Divorce (CCD) in Ventura County, a professional group that helps couples collaborate or mediate rather than litigate during the divorce process. He can also assist you in completing the required Family Law forms that must be filed in California for all separations or divorces. When working with newly single individuals, he is able to help you plan your financial future. In 2010, Dr. Bolker completed mediation training provided by the Ventura Center for Dispute Resolution in cooperation with the Ventura County Superior Court. He applies his mediation skills when assisting clients, particularly those dealing with divorce or separation, and has seved as a volunteer mediator for the Ventura County Small Claims Court.
