When people hear the word “divorce,” their minds rocket toward catastrophe. Sadly, those predictions of doom are often true. But divorce itself doesn’t create a crisis any more than a stick of dynamite explodes a building. Instead, a chain of deliberate actions transforms what could be simple, quick, and inexpensive into a costly, messy, and time-consuming debacle. Family and Divorce Mediator Matthew M. House, J.D. corrects some common myths about divorce so that the public is not terrified by the prospect of their lives collapsing just because a marriage ends.
MYTH #5: You always need a lawyer and it’s time-consuming and costs a fortune.
TRUTH: Anything a lawyer can do for you, you are also allowed to do for yourself. Mediation is the better way to go when you want some help but want to save the stress and most of the expense of lawyers. Mediation is also quicker and friendlier.
