Divorce is the worst investment that both parties ever dreamed of, you cannot borrow money against it, but you can go broke because of it. So do it right! This book is a MUST READ if you're starting (or even in the middle of) your divorce proceedings. It covers vital aspects of your divorce process. Aspects that if you don't address will cost you both financially and emotionally. This Book was written after two years of research by Alan Weiss together with some of Australia's top Family Law barristers. Written in an easy to read style, This Is Your Divorce (Not Your Lawyer's) is aimed squarely at normal people going through the often horrendous turmoil of divorce. This book is designed to give you an overall framework on how to manage your divorce. What are the common pitfalls when hiring a legal team, what to look out for in different phases of your proceedings. Remember this is your divorce, not your lawyer's. You need to be actively involved in how the process progresses and take control of your divorce. Your lawyer can and will advise you about many aspects, but in the end, you are ultimately responsible for making the decisions that will shape your future.
