Who is W. Earl Webster, the Utah Divorce Advocate?

I founded Utah Divorce Advocate with the intent of creating a law practice that provides a unique service that actually helps and benefits clients.

I chose to base my firm on the Certified Divorce Financial Analyst® because CDFA® services meld all of my prior work experience into a tool for helping people.  Moreover, I have nightmares of clients who made poor financial choices during their divorce, either self-prepared or with other counsel, and then later asked me to help repair the damage.  Usually, all I could tell them is the damage was irreparable.  I have a goal to prevent such errors from ever happening in the future.

I bring an eclectic mix of experience to bear when serving clients.  I am both a certified public accountant and an attorney.  I have audited income taxes, managed trust funds, and regulated various licensed professions and occupations.  As a CPA I have over 20 years of experience assisting clients with tax planning to minimize liability in both income taxes and estate planning.  Prior to founding this firm, I worked for a small, 3-professional firm where I handled family law cases as needed and I performed all research into complex family law questions.

My education includes a Master of Accountancy—Financial Accounting and Auditing from the Marriott School of Management at Brigham Young University and a Juris Doctor from the S.J. Quinney College of Law at the University of Utah.

When not helping people with divorce finances, I can be found operating Living Solutions for Seniors, an elder living placement service.  During my free time I enjoy reading (my tastes range from St. Augustine to Tolkien to Douglas Adams), cooking (mostly Mexican), and xeric gardening.
