What’s Your Divorce Plan?

Feb 2, 2012 | Dealing with Divorce Lawyers, Divorce Process

If you were about to start a project that included decisions that would affect almost every aspect of your life – including relationships, living arrangements, finances, your children, social interactions, etc. – would you hire someone (for a LOT of money) to take everything over and handle it all in a contentious way? Or would you want to explore your options, learn how the legal system works with respect to your project, have more control over the decisions that will be made, and accomplish your goals for a lot less money and a lot less stress?

Many people who have made the decision to divorce make the mistake of immediately hiring a divorce lawyer and having papers served on their spouse to begin court proceedings. I’m sure most of them think this is just how it’s done. But there are much better options.

Before doing anything else, you need to get information and come up with a divorce plan. Try to find a divorce planning and facilitation service (like Divorce With Dignity – www.dwdignity.com) that can provide the information you need to make the best decisions.  We offer you a safe, neutral place to talk about divorce and help you plan yours to create your optimal future and get through the divorce process with the least amount of stress possible.

Every divorce is unique, so we work with you to find the best solutions for your particular situation. We can help you figure out –

  • How the legal system works in your state
  • The amount of money you’ll need to get a divorce and maintain a decent standard of living after the divorce
  • The issues you and your spouse might agree on, the issues you are not in agreement on, and the best way to come to an agreement on the matters of contention
  • Resources you may need to help you and your family through the divorce process and its effects
  • How to make your divorce as peaceful as possible

We’ll guide you through the divorce maze, coach you on how to communicate with divorce attorneys, mediators, etc., and provide unlimited referrals based on your needs. We can help you prepare and file the necessary legal documents, and show you how to get your divorce without going through litigation. Choosing alternative methods of conflict resolution (if both parties are willing) will reduce the time, expense, stress, and animosity associated with a litigated divorce.

Most of us in the Divorce With Dignity Network have been through a divorce ourselves, so we know what you’re going through and empathize with your needs. We’ve helped scores of people to obtain fast and easy divorces without all the costly court battles and bitter disputes. Our mission is to help you plan and achieve a divorce that is fair and affordable, and to make sure you and your children get all the help you deserve to make it through this difficult time in a way that maintains your self-respect and dignity.

I believe that we are much better off making our own decisions about our private lives, instead of leaving it in the hands of the legal system.
