Tips for Getting the Most Out of Your Divorce

First things first: Try to stay calm. Make a list of the things you want out of your divorce so you’ll know when to fight and when to let go. A lot of people fight over everything in their divorce, even things they don’t care about. Later, they realize things would have gone a lot smoother if they hadn’t fought so hard for the things they didn’t even need.

For instance, if you don’t care much about the shared furniture in the house but your ex does, you might consider giving in on the furniture so you can get what you really want—the car.

If you’re a parent, you probably care a great deal about child custody. Focus your efforts on proving that you are a good parent and can provide emotional support, financial support, and a secure home for your child. 

If spousal support is important to you, make sure you obtain documentation and evidence of why you are entitled to receive spousal support.
