Divorce is one of the most difficult and stressful episodes in a person’s life. It’s very important to understand that although Attorneys are sympathetic to the emotional side of Divorce, they are not counselors or therapists.
If you are angry, hurt, vindictive or suffer any other of the emotions that a break-up may entail, it is always best to seek a counselor or therapist to help you through this difficult period. These professionals are trained to listen and provide support & guidance.
In contrast, Divorce Attorneys are trained to examine the issues involved in the Divorce and determine the best course of action. Lawyers will need to know:
- date of marriage & date of separation
- possibility or need of spousal support
- a detailed outline of the assets & debts
- an examination of income and expenses
- a determination of child issues ie. custody & visitation as well as child support
It is always better to try to forge a reasonable agreement over issues with the spouse which would avoid the extra cost, time and stress of multiple court appearances. A therapist or counselor can help when emotions prevent this from happening.
