In the early stages of divorce, I remember looking, in amazement, at people who had previously been through the process and appeared to be happy in their current relationships. I didn’t know how long that might take for me, but it was always something that gave me a sense of hope for a better future.

Getting through a divorce is one thing, co-parenting for the rest of your life is entirely another.

Divorce is one of those interesting subjects that depending on who you speak to, their advice is usually wholly based on how they experienced the process.

The divorce trial or family court trial will be the biggest and most important event in the entire process of your legal matter— if you get there. As I outlined in an earlier blog post about the family court process, the judges really do not want to see your case unless completely necessary.
