Review of the divorce process
Important divorce financial issues
Ending a marriage requires the resolution of many legal and emotional issues. But, quality of life often depends on financial security. Certain divorce issues require scrutiny while undergoing a divorce.
Divorce and college
Ending a marriage complicates a family's financial plans and parents must figure how to deal with paying for the care and support of their children. Paying for the children's college education is expensive and an important divorce matter even if the children are very young.
Stress from divorce might transfer to your children
The stress of divorce can have an impact on everyone involved. Controlling the level of stress that you have to deal with is only manageable to a certain extent. The way you handle what you are given can be fully controlled.
Keeping custody of the business
Like personal property and child custody, a spouse's business may be a disputed divorce issue. Taking steps to protect the business before the wedding may help avoid its loss during property division.
