A Good Divorce Is Possible… Understanding The Process
Mon 3rd September, 2007
Simone Katzenberg, a specialist family solicitor, has published her new handbook “Divorce : Managing the Early Stages”. In this jargon-free guide, she answers the key questions that consume the thoughts of men and women at the point when a marriage comes to an end, when they don’t know who to turn to or what to do. It’s everything you want and need to know if you are “about to get divorced”.
Simone distils her 20 years of frontline experience into a personal and practical handbook and offers guidance on matters such as:
- how to break the news that you want a divorce
- how to avoid sending those infernal and poisonous texts and emails, or driving the other’s car into a wall or stalking the new partner, all uncontrollably tempting when in the throes of emotional chaos
- how to manage the actual separation without destroying each other and the household contents in the process
- how to help the children rather than becoming so focused on revenge that you end up hurting the children instead of your soon-to-be ex
- how to gather information so that the finances can be dealt with effectively
- how to find and then deal with your lawyer and keep legal costs down
- how to understand what needs to be dealt with urgently and what can wait.
Understanding the process is the first key step towards resolution and Simone believes that being prepared and informed on the topics she covers, husbands and wives will be more able to overcome the obstacles with which they are presented and better equipped to help themselves have a “good” divorce.
