As a Divorce Financial Forensic Expert, Jay reviews and analyzes the financials and the financial situation of the parties thinking about, going through, or finalizing a divorce. He provides insight, analysis, projections, and strategies for clients and attorneys in the hopes they are able to settle their cases. However, in the event a settlement is not possible, Jay is qualified to testify in court, where his role is to simplify the complex financial situations of the parties so the court can more easily understand the financial complexities through forensic analysis of the parties’ lifestyles, taxes, assets, property tracing, and equitable distribution. 

Jay has been published in many different periodicals and has appeared on many different programs to discuss the financial implications of divorce. Jay also teaches at The American College of Financial Services, where he has written course content and instructs financial professionals on divorce financial analysis and planning. 

When Jay is not helping clients, he enjoys boating with his family, golfing, and running projects benefiting homeless students attending NYC Public Schools through The Building Blocks Foundation, a non-profit organization Jay founded in 2017.
