DIVORCE ASSIST - Helping You to Become a Winner Again!

Why the divorce lawyers are so expensive, comparing to other kinds of lawyers?
Everybody who has contacted a divorce lawyer or had to use professional services of a divorce attorney, can tell you the their fees are very high. Usually, the lower end of the scale is at $300/hour.
Sure, it takes time and lots of studying to be a good lawyer. But, in conveyancing, criminal law, or other areas, lawyers don't charge that much.

This got me thinking, perhaps there are other important issues that make the divorce lawyers the best paid in the profession.
Consider the level of stress that they work under. Family matters are never easy to deal with, even less so, when angry husband and wife face each other, and childrens' welfare comes into play.

So, your marriage is in a mess. You've separated from your wife, and live alone. The divorce matters are going their way, with both parties having engaged their lawyers. What next?
In case you said: "Time to find a new partner!" You were perfectly right. And it means... dating.

Yes, after many years with your estranged wife, you can hardly recall what dating is all about. But, unless you get out and try to find new contacts, with a view of a friendship or relationship, you'll stay alone and miserly. Meeting different people will maintain your selfesteem, and help to get some relief from the usually stressful divorce proceedings.

But, where do you start?

From what I hear, the process of marital separation can save the union, if used properly.
Why this qualifier? because most couples enter separation process because it's required by law.
In other words, before divorce is granted, husband and wife have to spend about 12 months minimum (varies between states) in separation. This has to be legally documented and provable if required by the Superior Court, or wherever your matter is going to be heard.

But, what if both partners enetered separation period with one clear intention: to clear the bad mamories and try to save their marriage?
What if they've adopted a positive stance, and tried to get together with open minds?

You often hear the voices advocating extending the separation period, and hoping that the warring couple will mend their differences. Then hopefully, the divorce rate would come down.
This theory requires some more of testing by our social engineers. But, from my life experience, separation often just delays the inevitable.
When a couple decides to split, the damage to their marriage is already significant. Probably some early counseling, or even a meeting with their lawyer would be more helpful.

Yes, I'm quite sceptical as to the efectiveness of adding a year or so, to the period of legal separation.

So, why the divorce statistics are going higher, and higher?
Why more than 30% of American couples will become singles again?
Why their most prized "property" - their children, will be fought over and soaked in the venom... that their loving parents spit on each other?

Well, social scientists of the 21st century can't answer those questions. How can I... only recently divorced?
