You need reliable information, and you need it fast.

Stick with us and get the facts as we bust 3 common myths about divorce-

Myth: Hire a lawyer and you’re done! Sit back and they’ll take care of it.

Truth: Nope!  You’re a big part of the process.  You need to be an active participant. Why? 

  • You are your own best advocate
  • No one knows you better than YOU
  • You know what YOU need, value, can accept, and must reject

You want to be prepared, confident, knowledgeable, and vocal.

More engagement = More control over the process

Myth: Once the divorce is finalized, you are “done.”

Truth: Oftentimes, the process isn’t over once the papers are signed.

Future changes in spousal support, child support, and income levels often arise.

*For some, yes, you close that book and put it in the rearview!*

Myth: Divorce is a courtroom battle.

Truth: Doesn’t have to be! Courtroom divorce (aka traditional litigation) is just one way to do it.

Out-of-court processes like mediation or collaborative law have huge potential benefits –

  • Quicker
  • Less expensive
  • Less contentious
  • More private
  • Much better for the kids

Understanding these truths will help you navigate your divorce process with clarity and confidence.
