Happy New Year
Posted: January 5, 2011
The New Year is always a time to examine our lives and make resolutions. Most people resolve to save money or get healthy, but people in a troubled marriage often do not know what to do. They consider counseling, divorce, legal separations and they ponder the emotional and financial realities of these decisions. If you are considering a divorce or a legal separation, it is invaluable to gather all the information necessary before you make the decision. Make sure you understand the finances of your family and of yourself personally. Make sure you understand tax returns and what it means to file jointly as a married couple. Make copies of all vital documents such as mortgage documents and retirement account statements and pay information. Do not hesitate to meet with an experienced family law attorney who can advise you of your rights so you do not make decisions during this year that could jeopardize your goals if you do file for divorce or legal separation in 2011.
