STEPHEN B. GARELICK CPA, CVA, CFS

As a partner and senior case manager of Miod and Company, I specialize in litigation support and forensic accounting. I work with the legal community as a mediator and collaborative family law consultant.

As a financial specialist, I aide divorcing couples in the financial process by helping them gather, prepare, and share their monetary documents in a thorough, yet gentle manner. In addition, I prepare marital business appraisals. I assist legal counsel with child and spousal support calculations while taking into account the parties’ budgetary constraints, needs and wants.

With confidence and compassion, I offer creative solutions in alliance with the collaborative team that enables the divorcing couple to reach a dignified successful financial settlement.
