Tips to Make a Divorce Case Easier

No matter the best intentions of spouses seeking to end a marriage, a divorce case is not only a legally buy also an emotionally challenging process. There are some strategies that a couple can employ in an effort to lower the tensions and make a divorce case at least somewhat easier to navigate.

Hire a Divorce Lawyer

The number one step to take in an effort to tamp down the emotions and conflicts associated with ending a marriage is to hire a divorce attorney. Yes, when a divorce lawyer is retained, that professional will stand his or her ground and will do what is necessary to protect the rights and interests of the client. But, in the end, it is the divorce lawyer who is doing battle (hopefully with another qualified divorce attorney). This leaves the parties to a divorce case a margin of space to stay out of the fray, at least to some degree.

Write Things Down Before and During a Divorce Case

Everything of consequence in a divorce case needs to be in writing. This includes the taking of notes about matters that may be an issue in a divorce case before such a legal action is filed with the court.

Obviously, major agreements are placed into written form. In addition, if spouses reach agreement during a divorce about when the kids will be picked up for parenting time, confirm the arrangement in writing. Email provides an excellent tool for inter-spousal communication during a divorce. It also provides a means of creating a record about a vast array of smaller, but important, agreements that occur throughout a divorce case.

Keep Third Parties Out of the Mix

Do not involve third parties – except for attorneys – in a divorce case. Do not drag friends into disputes. Do not rely on friends to communicate, unless there is a clearly designated, mutually agreeable individual who can serve in such a capacity without incident.

Practice the Art of the Time Out

When it appears emotions are about to flare, or if some sort of impasse is reached, a divorcing couple should take a breather from each other. Rome wasn’t built in a day and a divorcing couple does not have to address every issue immediately or when it is raised. Time outs works to lower emotions and gives a couple time to contemplate a situation and put it into perspective.

Beware. Notice , that there are no negative comments! He is extremely dishonest in the way that he does business . Word to the wise, lawyers are expected to have moral character to some degree!

Michael is excellent! We were incredibly impressed by his professionalism and quick response time. He helped with our home closing. He stayed abreast with the events at closing and ensured everything ran smoothly even though he couldn't physically be present. We would highly recommend his services!

Great lawyers- I had a complex custody issue, and Marianne, my attorney for my recent case, was a HUGE help. Even Christin, who works with Marianne and the firm, gives helpful advice and always available and understanding, as well. Also, they were VERY understanding of my financial situation, and gave advice accordingly, which is a rare find in this field. They are compassionate, understanding, and always available to answer any and all questions. I highly recommend this law firm. They go above and beyond, which again, is rare. I've used their firm for over two years, and always had great experiences. Highly HIGHLY recommend!

There are no words to truly explain how grateful we are to Michael Kuldiner and his staff. We had a previous attorney that had done very little with our case. Michael agreed to take our case, and we are very thankful that he did! He was able to accomplish in 4 months what the other attorney had not even come close to in over 2 1/2 years. Felicia is the most AMAZING Paralegal. She is through, prompt, on top of every detail, and incredibly kind. We are confident that our case settled simply because of Michael, Felicia and the office as a whole. HIGHLY recommend!!!

We terminated our previous real estate attorney and came to Michael for help. We were most impressed by Michael's deep commitment on our best interest and his strong legal expertise on helping us achieve the desired outcome. I also really liked Michael's communication - He always returns your call and inform you key progress of the case. We will definitely recommend Michael to our network as the top real estate attorney.

Michael Kuldiner and his staff are the best! They are professional, educated and always there when you need them. I went through a very difficult divorce and there is no one else I would rather have by my side then Michael.

I dropped my old attorney and came to Mike. I had 2 matters that needed to be resolved together. My previous attorney was only working on one matter since he was not knowledgeable in the other, my case was going no where. Finally after 6 years i dropped my old attorney and came to Mike. He was able to take care of both matters in fraction of the time and cost than with my previous attorney. Michael and his team are very knowledgeable in many diverse legal areas. I am very happy i switched attorneys and both of my cases were resolved and finalized.
