Going through a divorce or legal separation is a complicated and overwhelming ordeal.
So if you’ve made the decision to divorce or are facing divorce proceedings because your spouse has stated their intention to end the marriage, you might be wondering what first steps you should take to get through this difficult process as quickly and amicably as you can.
Knowing that steps taken up-front can make the entire divorce process more peaceful, fair and drama-free, Equitable Mediation asked 54 experts to reveal their best and most insightful tips on preparing for divorce with simple, actionable tips.
They also asked a number of former clients who are now divorced what, if anything, they would have done differently to make their divorce more peaceful, fair, cost-effective and/or easier on their kids. And what divorce advice they have for others getting ready to start the divorce process with children.
Finally, in light of the pandemic, they asked experts to share tips for how individuals and couples who were intending on starting a divorce (prior to the Coronavirus pandemic) can best deal with the stress of life on hold and sheltering-in-place with someone they no longer wish to be married to.
