Divorce Advice For Men

by Tim on December 10, 2009

First of all let me start by saying that I am not a lawyer and that what you read here is only my personal opinion. Having said this, I would like to point the fact that while passing through divorce, I have gathered an enormous amount of know how on the subject. Thanks to my lawyer, to the internet and to some divorce help books and eBooks I am confident to say that I know a great deal on the subject. If you want to read further on the subject I would suggest that you buy this eBook, which is as far as I know the best guide for men who are facing divorce:

Insider Secrets & Strategies That Men Must Know to Win Their Divorce

Many men file for divorce without knowing what is in store for them. It is unfortunate to see that many men and women opt for divorce at the first hurdle. In my opinion the first thing one should do if you have marital problems is try to save your marriage by attending for couples advice counseling classes. Only if relationship advice does not get you anywhere should you start looking for essential divorce advice for men.

It is always best to try to arrive to divorce mediation without going the court. However this is not always possible so in that case you might have no alternative but to hire a lawyer to tackle the issue in court. The first piece of legal advice for divorce is to hide any letters and any financial documentation, or to simply take these away from your home. You should not be surprised that your wife would start looking for any papers she could find, to use these against you in court. So it is always better to be safe than sorry. If you have moved away from your house, then it is important to change your mailing address as soon as possible. Otherwise your wife might have access to your personal letters and to bills addressed to your name, which is not what you want.

Another important thing to take care of is the monetary situation. The first financial divorce advice one normally gets is to cancel any joint credit card accounts and to open a credit card account on your name. After you have done that you should inform your wife about this. Informing your wife beforehand might get her on a credit card spending spree just to make you angry. Any joint bank accounts should also be divided equally. If on the other hand you are the only or the primary source of income for the family (your wife might be a house wife or she might earn less than you) it is important NOT to cut all finances to your wife immediately, especially if you have children. Otherwise this might be used against you in court.

The same can be said of insurance policies. If your insurance is covering your wife and children, you should not cancel the insurance policy until the divorce ruling is over. In the same manner, any house expenses like heating and electricity bills would still need to be paid, even if you are living away from your home. Another important point to make is that you should not spend any money unnecessarily. The divorce costs can be much higher than you initially thought, so only buy the essential things and leave the things that you can do without for the after divorce.

After taking care of the financial situation, you must start looking at the valuables that you have in your house. Any personal collections (paintings, gold coins, expensive watches, small antiques, designer clothes, etc.) should be moved away from the house as soon as possible. Larger items and essential items such as furniture would need to be left in their place. However you should take photos and videos of these items so that you can show these as proof in case your wife decides to sell these at an auction, antiques shop, second hand shop or on the internet.

Even if the divorce waiting period is a long one and things might not be going the way you hoped for, you should also avoid unnecessary arguments with your wife as this might be used against you in court. If you have small children, then it is good to let your kids know that you still love them and that you will not leave them, even if you have to move house. Small kids can pass through a lot of stress as a result of the parental problems so make it a point to let them know that they have nothing to do with the problems that there are between yourself and the mother. Coming again to the children issue, if child custody is an issue then it is important to hire a lawyer who is experienced in such a field and who can give you custody advice.

Last but not least you should always try to distract yourself from the emotional stresses of divorce. Live goes on in any case so you should take divorce as it is. Spend more time on your hobby or find some new hobbies. Distract yourself by doing some sports, going to the gym, doing some yoga and so on. All this while spending the least amount of money as possible (it might not be the best time to start playing golf). Try to avoid taking any pills for stress release. Pills can have negative side effects on the body and you definitely want to avoid looking drained during the divorce procedures in court. Better alternatives to pills are to seek for marriage therapy, counseling advice, divorce support groups, attending to meditation classes, listening to relaxing music, having a walk in the countryside and so on. Try to avoid having large meals and stimulants like coffee before going to bed as these will not help you in getting relaxed sleep.

Men Divorce Rights

by Tim on December 13, 2009

In today’s society many men and women are faced with divorce. No wonder that one can find many websites, books and eBooks who give divorce advice for men and women. In some situations the divorce mediation goes smoothly without involving major issues. Unfortunately however, in the majority of situations the divorce process brings with it many different problems. If you are a man faced with divorce, you usually have much more to worry than if you are a woman. One of the problems in divorce proceedings is that men divorce rights are inferior to woman divorce rights and that women are treated differently then men are. In fact it is no wonder that the majority of child custody conflicts end up if favour of the wife and not the husband. It is also not the first time that the husband loses his house as a result of divorce whilst being forced to fork out much of his pay for the upbringing of his kids.

Is the above fair? Is the law really fair with everyone? I would assume that some men really deserve to lose their house and kids as a result of divorce. If you are a man who cheated his wife, if you drink regularly and are rarely sober, if you spend half of your pay on slot machines and casinos, or if you are always hanging our with friends whilst forgetting about your wife and kids, then you probably deserve to lose the divorce war. However if you never did anything wrong, then you probably do not deserve to be treated this way. Why the law does not treat men and women equally in such situations and why the grounds for divorce usually lean towards the woman is beyond me.

Some husbands have to pay too much child support, more than what they can really afford. It is not the fist time that a wife can spend some or most of the child support money on herself by buying things for her or doing beauty treatments using the money of her ex husband.

Facts On Divorce

by Tim on December 16, 2009

According to recent statistics, about half of the marriages end up in divorce. These facts on divorce are quite alarming. However did you ever realize that women file for divorce approximately twice as much as men? Why is this so? Quite simply the reason it that women know beforehand that they have a much greater change of winning the divorce war than their husband. They know that they have a good chance of winning child custody and they know they have a good chance of getting good financial return after the divorce proceedings are over. In view of this many wives are capable of playing dirty tricks (with the help of their lawyer) to the unsuspicious husbands. This can lead to despair and depression and unfortunately some men even turn to violence as a result.

Why said that you have to pay a high level divorce attorney in order to win your divorce case? The truth is that the majorities of divorce lawyers, or be it any lawyer, are not interested in getting out the truth. The thing that lawyers are most interested in is making money. The same can be said of the judge, he/she would not care less about the problems and financial burden that you can get into as a result of the divorce proceedings.

If only men knew how to tackle the divorce procedures and if only men knew about some tactics before going to court, they would have a much greater change of winning the divorce war. Many men do not know how and when to speak when the divorce process goes sour. Most men do not realize that what the say to their wife or to their wife’s family could be used against them in court. Many divorce proceedings go on for several years and the ex husband and wife are always fighting about something or another. This is insane and this is actually what your lawyer or divorce attorney usually wants: to keep proceedings going long so that he/she can suck out your financial investments bit by bit.

In actually fact many do not know that in some cases a divorce solution can be found without the need of actually going to court. Divorce agreements, including financial issues, divorce settlement issues as well as child support can be negotiated for the good of the husband, wife and children without ever going to court. Also many do not know that in some cases it makes sense to fire your lawyer if you lose faith in him/her and hire another one in his/her place.

Divorce Planning For Men

by Tim on December 19, 2009

Unfortunately many husbands and wives insist in living with each other ever though they can no longer tolerate each other. The truth is that denying you marital problems will not get you anywhere. Who cares what other people think? If you really cannot get on with your marriage, then get some relationship advice to try and save your marriage, but if this gets you nowhere then it is time to start thinking about divorce. Unfortunately proper divorce planning for men and women is not always good enough and many are those who suffer because of this.

If you think that it is not possible to save your marriage then it would be best to find divorce mediation without going to court. However this is not always possible, so you might have no option but to take legal advice and to tackle divorce in court. In this case it is essential to get a good lawyer. The lawyer must ideally be experienced in divorce proceedings without being too expensive. Planning for this beforehand is therefore essential. You do not want to hire a university graduate that has never been involved in a divorce case!

There are several things that one can do to plan for divorce. The first thing is ensuring that you can support divorce financially. Getting divorced might mean having to find a new house, paying child custody fees, paying the lawyer, having to buy your own food and so on. If you do not think about such things beforehand then your after divorce might be a nightmare.

Another thing that you should plan beforehand is keeping and sorting out all your financial statements. This includes keeping your house bills and keeping copies of your income tax returns. Being organized before going to court is essential, especially when money is involved. You do not want your wife and wife’s lawyer to accuse you that you are hiding your financial statements. Being disorganized in your financial statements also means that your lawyer will waste a lot of time in fact finding which means a higher lawyer bill and longer divorce proceedings.

Given the importance of the financial aspect in divorce, it is important to ensure that your job is a stable one. You do not want to get fired from your job after starting the divorce proceedings. Obviously there is no need to mention that if you do not have a job then you have no alternative but to find one, unless you do your own business or unless you are well off. If your wife is a house wife, then you have more to worry about. In divorce it is often heard that the man has to pay 50% or more to the “poorer” house wife. If you have an unstable job then you are playing with fire and your after divorce might not be so pleasant!

Another thing to plan beforehand is protecting your assets. If divorce is in the air then you must find a safe place for any collections and valuables that you own. You want to avoid having your wife selling your stamp collection, paintings or watch collection on eBay! So it is best to keep an inventory of all your belongings and if necessary take a photo or video of them. In case some things go missing then you will have sufficient proof in court that you really owned such objects.

Last but not least it is important to note that divorce can bring with it various psychological and emotional stresses. In view of this it is essential to think about this beforehand and to identify any potential divorce support groups that you can join.

Divorce Lawyers For Men

by Tim on December 21, 2009

Getting a good lawyer might make all the difference in court. You should get a lawyer with experience, one that has already worked in the field and not a new graduate. Good divorce lawyers for man are not a rare find, however there are several other things that need to be taken into consideration. You should aim to recruit an attorney that has specialized in the field of men’s divorce procedures. It is to be expected that the typical men’s requirements in a divorce are different from that of a woman. This situation complicates itself further when the couple has children. Since the majority of courts tend to be biased towards the wife when children are involved it is important to find a lawyer that has experience in such situations. So if you have children it is important to find a lawyer that is also experienced in family law, child custody and alimony cases.

It is important to not that if a lawyer is experienced in divorce and child support, it does not necessarily mean that he/she has experience in court. Also worth noting is the fact that not all state laws are the same so you must look for a lawyer who is experienced in your state law, in other words a local divorce lawyer. A lawyer who has experience in your state courts will know any potential loopholes of the system and he/she would also know the judges who work in court. This means that he/she would know how to tackle the judges according to their individual character. No experienced and good divorce lawyer comes cheap, so you must be ready to pay thousands for the services of a good lawyer.

Having said that, it does not mean that you should go for the best divorce lawyer, or for a very expensive one that will suck your money out of your pockets. If you can afford an expensive lawyer then good luck to you, but what is the point of winning the divorce war if you have no money left in your pockets? For this reason you should ask for references from your family and friends. If any men you know have passed from divorce, they might be able to recommend some suitable divorce lawyers while not recommending some others. Alternative means of looking for divorce lawyers is online or perhaps from the yellow pages. One the net you should be able to find advice from divorce advocacy groups. Such groups monitor different divorce cases so you should expect to find some constructive advice while doing your lawyer search. Before choosing a lawyer it is best to interview them on the phone. It might be that you might not get too well with some of the lawyers that were recommended to you. A lawyer that is good for one man does not mean that he is good for all men.

Whilst you should not go for the most expensive lawyer, going for a cheap divorce lawyer to keep down you divorce costs might not be a good option. A mediocre lawyer might opt for the joint settlement which might not be in your best interests. In this way you would have paid less in lawyer fees, but in the end you might lose a lot in view of the joint settlement.

The lawyer should be there to help you; he/she should be able to explain to you certain things, so it is important that the relationship between you and the lawyer is a good one. Even though there are probably certain things that you would prefer to keep to yourself it is very important to be totally honest with your lawyer and to keep him/her informed about everything. You might think that some small facts are irrelevant to mention but these small things might make all the difference in court. Although your attorney might have a good reputation as a divorce lawyer for men, it does not necessarily mean that you will go on well together. If you feel you are losing trust in your lawyer or if you feel that the lawyer is only interested in your money than it makes sense to find a new lawyer before it is too late.

What May Cause Divorce – Lack of Love, Cheating, Differences

by Tim on May 12, 2010

Over fifty percent of marriages end in divorce . It is a statistic that has been steadily rising over the past several hundred years.

There was a point in time when men and women could rise above the causes of divorce and find a way to stay together, but today’s society can’t seem to reconcile these differences .

The causes of divorce vary and they can be extremely personal for the couple.

Divorce has become quite commonplace and it’s really nothing to be ashamed of, we just have to make sure it is for the right reasons.

Irreconcilable Differences

One common cause of divorce is what is officially referred to as irreconcilable differences. The reason this particular cause is so common is because it really covers alot of ground, while at the same time leaving the actual reasons wide open . Oftentimes, this reason is sited by couples who married young and no longer have anything in common.

Other times, it refers to a disagreement on a fundamental issue, such as whether or not to have children. It could just mean that the couple argues too much. The term ‘irreconcilable differences’ is commonly used, but it is important that it is not used too likely.

Domestic Violence as a Cause of Divorce

A major cause of divorce, domestic violence, that has only in the past fifty years risen to the surface. Domestic violence is something that few people used to talk about because it was considered shameful.

Women have a lot more support nowadays and feel more confident coming forward and claiming domestic violence as a cause of divorce. That’s a very positive step in the right direction.

Cheater, Cheater, Pumpkin Eater

Cheating, or having an affair, is yet another major cause of divorce. Some couples are able to get past this with the help of counseling, but for the majority of married couples, this is just too much to handle. For many people, cheating is the worst kind of betrayal and something they just can’t get past, for them trust is everything and this becomes a very good reason for divorce.

For Better Or For Worse

Regardless of what the causes of a divorce are, the most important thing of all is that the divorce accomplishes what it sets out to accomplish. For some couples that just can’t bear to be in the same room as the person they are married to, divorce becomes the solution and levels the playing field, sometimes even bringing them closer together again .

For others, the hostilities and tensions that plagued their marriage will never go away. But if such tensions must persist, it is better that they do so outside of a marriage rather than within one.
