MY TOP 10 DIVORCE TIPS FOR HOWARD COUNTY & MARYLAND :
(1) Regardless of your personality or mindset, do not underestimate the trauma that divorce can have on family (especially children), friends, and you. When a marriage ends, spouses and their children frequently face a virtual storm of stressful changes in their lives. But, do not panic. Contact your lawyer immediately.
(2) The attitude and focus for everyone involved in a divorce should be "survival", not necessarily "winning". Although I am considered to have been extremely successful.in my representation of numerous clients in divorces over the past 30 years or more, I have never seen anyone "win" a divorce. I am, however, pleased to say that I have experienced and witnessed many people "survive" the process satisfactorily.
(3) " Measure twice, cut once.". Think. Do not make important decisions about your divorce without thinking them through very carefully. Consider every major decision in your divorce to be a life-changing decision. Because it potentially is.
(4)Remember: Although you are getting divorced from your spouse, generally your children aret not. Do not get so wrapped up in the moment with anger, resentment and other emotional feelings that you drag your children down or into the process unnecessarily.
(5) Beware of "rubberneckers, "owl heads", and other well-meaning (or otherwise) layman advisors. Their advice is generally worth what you are paying them for it --- usually nothing. Everybody has an opinion about divorce, but few people know what they are talking about in this arena.
(7) Focus on your (and your children's) future; not the past. " Let the dead past bury its dead." Concentrate on the "BIG PICTURE" for your life. Ever forward.
(8) Try to mediate differences with your spouse, first ; not litigate until necessary.
(9) Be honest and forthcoming with your attorney. He or she is relying on what you are telling them.
(10) Create and maintain an inventory of all marital and non-marital assets as well as liabilities.
