“I highly recommend Kelly Deis. She really saved the day for me.
I was going through divorce proceedings after a 25 year marriage that included pension valuations in the property distribution. My first QDRO lawyer quit on me just 35 days before my court date because I hadn’t done the valuation language properly. I was in a panic. I found a new QDRO lawyer who had me hire a financial person. My search led me to Kelly Deis at Soundpoint Consulting. What luck. She was able take the information and forms I had gathered and get the complicated pension valuations to me within a week. Once I had my pension valuations from Kelly, my QDRO lawyer and I were able to complete the needed documentation in time for my court date, all because of Kelly’s expertise. Thank you Kelly!”
