Never represent yourself - get a lawyer ( only a fool goes it alone)





Never assume a judge will side with you because it seems fair and right.





Never trust the ex - even though they seem nice about everything (of course this does not mean we have to be nasty)





Never show anger or resentment in the courtroom. Judges seem to side with the most honorable, loving parent with good intentions (but be prepared for occasional shocks).





Be prepared for anything, keep anything that can help your case and get anything that can strenghten your case - and be honest with your lawyer - if he/she gets nailed on anything you fail to mention - you could lose right there and then. If your lawyers knows everything - good and bad - he can use what is good in your favour and prepare a defense for what is bad and likely to be brought up against you.





Most important - Most people are intimidated by lawyers and of course they are experts at this. But remember that YOU are hiring them to DO a JOB for you and they better do a good one.





You are going to pay anywhere from $100 to $300 and hour for a decent lawyer - I'll tell you, when I am paying out this kind of money I expect good service and results (at least his/her best effort to make it happen) and make this clear when I hire a lawyer. If a lawyer can't handle this then he/she is probably to arrogant to work with.





It will get expensive you really need to look at what you will get out of it. If there are kids involved or a couple hundred thousand at stake it is worth it.





However if he only has a net worth of 30,000 and no kids are in the picture. Maybe a mutual divorce can be worked out where you both walk away and no lawyers are involved. Going after his future revenue can get costly and you really have to weigh the odds of winning vs cost to win.Can anyone share your advice about Divorce? thanks a lot?
need to find a lawyer..then go to court house and get papers to file then file the papers..





most lawyers let you have one visit free,so go see a lawyer
The question is a bit too general - what type of information? Often, the best person to talk to about divorce matters is a lawyer.
Ask around from others who have gone through a divorce to find the best Attorney available. Document every thing regarding what he has done in order to share with the attorney.


A lot of times when people go to meet with the attorney they are so upset they forget everything that they wanted to say. Also make a list to give to the Attorney of how you want things divided out, if kids are involved then visitation needs to be worked out as well as child support, alimony etc.





Hope this helps! Will keep your friend in my prayers.
Divorce is never a pleasant part of one's life. Does your friend have an attorney? Please tell us more about his situation so we can answer you better.
Divorce is painful, costly and a huge nuisance. Its costly because of the filing fees, the time you have to take off from work to go to court to deal with it and just time consuming. Not to mention the whole process is very frustrating, especially if the other party is creating obstacles out of spite instead of allowing it to be a smooth process. I need a vacation, and I'm just getting started in this process, not to mention the fact that I need an emotional overhaul. On the bright side, I feel so much happier and less stressed that I am no longer with him and I know it will get better and better as time goes on.
It is...





painful


expensive


depressing


shocking


gut wrenching





That being said, God has been with me. After I went through all of that, I am now in a better place. In reality, for me, the worst times after the divorce were better than the best times with my wife. Everyone's situation is different. Best of luck to you.
