Are you worried your spouse is hiding money or manipulating finances during your divorce?
In high-conflict divorces, it's all too common for funds to be moved, concealed, or dissipated, leaving one partner in the dark and anxious about their financial future. In this episode of the Journey Beyond Divorce Podcast, I dive into the high-stakes world of divorce forensics and financial investigations, exploring what you need to know to protect yourself and your assets.
I'm joined by seasoned forensic accounting expert Ilan Hirschfeld, who shares decades of experience uncovering hidden assets, analyzing complex financial records, and guiding clients through some of the most challenging divorce situations. We talk about the warning signs that finances may not be fully transparent, how to assess whether forensic accounting is a necessary investment, and the different levels of forensic investigation—from targeted reviews to full-scale audits.
Ilan also explains what to look for in a forensic accountant: not just technical skill, but integrity, client care, and the ability to support you through what can feel like one of the most stressful chapters of your life. Whether you're concerned about post-complaint earnings, undisclosed income, or the subtle ways finances can be hidden, this conversation gives practical guidance to help you make informed decisions and move forward with clarity and confidence.
If you've ever questioned whether following the money in your divorce is worth the cost, this episode will help you weigh the risks, understand your options, and take the steps necessary to protect your financial future.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
