Divorce Isn’t a Fix All

Divorce in 2013 presents many problems which are out of your control. In addition to dissolving a marital relationship one must think about the existing economic environment in our Nation. 

Family law judges can’t predict the future and must make their decisions based on present circumstances. 

The recession is still alive and gnawing at our heels – our Nation has acquired a National deficit that is at this point and time almost unsustainable.  Factors such as Obamacare, EPA regulations are determinants that will and are affecting the work force.

What the future holds for those contemplating or going thru divorce is unknown at this time.  One or both parties may lose their jobs or be demoted to part time jobs.  If individuals have to pay for their own health insurance, this will reduce the anticipated monthly income.

It’s the unknowns in 2013 that make divorce such an unpredictable issue. Will there be money to meet monthly bills, pay child support, alimony if you find yourself in the unemployment line?  Will the children suffer dramatically due to your decision?  Will divorce harm both parties and the children at this time?

Anger, emotions, economic problem, financial issues all factor into your decision to get a divorce.  If there’s abuse or excessive problems with addiction, it may be best to get some legal support and discuss your options at this time.  

Probably one of the safest things that one can do before filing divorce papers is to set up a free consultation with an attorney.  Find out how divorce will affect you financially now and in the future.  Find out how marital assets will be divided and discuss what would be in the “best interest” of the children.  Discuss alimony, child custody and liabilities with the attorney.

Divorce is advertise as a commodity that will give you an overnight fix to all of your problems – it is a family law that allows parties to dissolve a marriage, but not necessarily remove personal responsibility or liability.
