Co-founding a finch company that would revolutionize the divorce sector was not what Catherine Shanahan and Karen Chellew, set out in life intending to do, but their experience, skillls and life events turned out to leave them perfectly placed to set up this business together.

Catherine was a financial planner, who went through a painful divorce, and vowed to help women understand their marital estate, so they did not get taken advantage of at such a vulnerable time in their lives. As part of this bigger purpose, she took on further training to become a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst. She quickly realized that the problems with the divorce industry were much bigger than just financial awareness. She started to understand that there were systemic issues throughout the entire divorce process
Catherine had the expertise to tackle the financial element of the problem. Still, she needed someone with experience with the legal process of divorce who would share her perspective and join her mission. Fortunately, around this time, a colleague introduced her to Karen, knowing that Karen also had a passion for helping empower women through her nonprofit. Catherine also learned that Karen had extensive professional experience as a paralegal and law firm business manager – and, like Catherine, she’d been through a divorce herself, and her experiences had convinced her that the system needed reform. With aligned incentives and joint commitment, Divorce U Solutions and My Divorce Solution was born in January 2016. Catherine and Karen believe divorce doesn’t need to be a contentious, expensive legal battle so created My Divorce Solution so families don’t have to experience divorce alone, afraid, and uninformed. They help divorcing couples have a clear picture of their full marital estate. This means they can understand the long-term consequences of the choices they make when dividing money to reach the best outcome for themselves and their family.
