Allison McFadden

Allison McFadden

Attorney, Mediator, Coac

Columbia, Maryland

I help families reach agreements outside of court—saving time, money, and emotional stress while keeping their children's well-being at the center. I founded my practice to offer a calm, solution-focused alternative to traditional litigation. My approach is built on the belief that most families can find solutions that work for them with the right support. Who I Help : Every family is different, and so is every separation. I work with people who are seeking a thoughtful, cooperative, and informed way to navigate major life changes, especially those who want to prioritize their children's well-being and long-term peace of mind. Here are some of the common situations where I can provide guidance and support: Divorce Coaching – One-on-one support for clients considering divorce who want to explore their options with clarity and without judgment, as well as those preparing for mediation who want to understand the process and set themselves up for success. Consulting Attorney – Helping clients in Maryland understand their legal options and negotiate wisely to reach settlements without unnecessary conflict or escalation. Divorce and Co-Parenting Mediation – Guiding families to create clear, customized divorce agreements and parenting plans that work for their unique situation. From Planning to Co-Parenting: Whether you're in the early planning stages or navigating post-divorce co-parenting, I provide practical tools and steady guidance. With transparent flat-fee pricing and a calm, empathetic approach, I'm here to help you protect what matters most while building a more peaceful path forward.

Chassidy Comella

NCMP Divorce Mediator, CDFA®, CDC®, CDS®, & CDC Transition and Recovery Specialist®

Orfordville, WI

As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst®, Certified Divorce Coach®, Transition and Recovery Specialist®, Certified Divorce Sppecialist®, and a Nationally Certified Mediation Professional, I have dedicated my career to helping individuals navigate the complex and emotionally challenging process of divorce. With nearly two decades of experience in the financial services field as a financial advisor and a financial education trailblazer for women, I am passionate about empowering my clients to emerge from divorce emotionally and financially intact. My passion for helping others through divorce stems from my own personal experiences with the process. After going through a difficult divorce myself, I realized that there were very few resources available to help individuals navigate the financial and emotional complexities of divorce. Determined to help others avoid the same challenges I faced, I dedicated myself to becoming an expert in the field. As a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst, I am uniquely equipped to help clients understand the financial implications of divorce, including property division, potential tax implications, and the financial impact of all possible divorce settlement scenarios. I work closely with clients to develop customized post-divorce financial plans that take into account their unique circumstances and goals, helping them to emerge from divorce with their financial futures intact. This gives my clients the clarity to advocate for a fair divorce settlement. In addition to my financial expertise, I am also a Certified Divorce Coach and Transition and Recovery Specialist. Through my coaching services, I help clients navigate the emotional challenges of divorce, providing them with the support, guidance, and tools they need to rebuild their lives with confidence and clarity. My compassionate and personalized approach helps clients come out the other side of divorce feeling empowered and ready to move forward. As a Nationally Certified Mediation Professional, I specialize in conscious uncoupling mediation, guiding couples through a respectful and cooperative process to resolve conflicts and reach mutually beneficial agreements. My mediation strategy focuses on open communication, empathy, and collaboration, ensuring that both parties feel heard and valued. By helping couples retain control over their family’s outcomes, I foster a more positive and constructive divorce experience. One of the things that sets me apart is my commitment to building a strong relationship with each and every client. I understand that divorce is a deeply personal and emotional process, and I take the time to get to know my clients on a personal level so that I can offer them the most effective support possible. Outside of work, I love to travel and enjoy exploring new cultures and cuisines. I am also dedicated to enriching the community through my volunteer work and have served on the board of several local non-profits.

Jamie M. Lima

MBA, CFP®, CDFA®

After watching my parents go through a divorce at a young age, and going through a tremendously expensive and emotionally-draining one myself in 2017, I launched Allegiant Divorce Solutions as a sister company to my traditional financial planning firm. I recognize the challenges people face as they decide how to handle their finances relating to divorce. My parents struggled and it was challenging for me, too. Looking back, there were mistakes I made during my own divorce that could have been avoided had I had the support of a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst ®. At present, armed with this ever-growing knowledge and almost 20 years of financial planning experience, I am dedicated to helping my clients navigate the complex aspects of divorce and gain a fair settlement, with much less stress.
