About this item

DIVORCE, SIMPLY STATED is a uniquely engaging handbook for individuals going through divorce or child custody/access cases. It helps readers choose between traditional "court-based" divorce and alternative dispute resolution, and teaches readers how to choose divorce lawyers and other professionals, and how to work efficiently with them. It covers legal and financial aspects of matters such as child support, spousal support, property settlement, and child custody and access governed by parenting plans. DIVORCE, SIMPLY STATED differs from other books of the genre in several important respects. First is the author's engaging voice that draws readers in and holds their attention. Second, it makes extensive use of lists that eliminates the excess verbiage that make other divorce how-to's so ponderous.
