Book excerpt: "When it comes to divorce, there's the old way- and there's the fair way. I know, because I learned the hard way." —Karen Stewart Divorce is costly. It costs money-masses of your money. It costs time-hours and hours spent in meetings, on the telephone, and completing paperwork and depositions and filing affidavits. It costs heartache as battle lines are drawn and loved ones, especially children, suffer emotional pain. Karen Stewart's own harrowing story of divorce is an unqualified testament to these truths. Her experience led her to believe that there had to be a better way to end a marriage and get on with life. Her ideas and vision evolved into Fairway Divorce Solutions, which provides a model for divorce with dignity and an end to traditional divorce. the Fairway Process Offers: a strategic step-by-step process that brings win-win resolutions regarding children, property, and money a decision-making process that leads to consensus and fair outcomes a focus on the children of the marriage a plan to control costs that can often escalate out of control in typical divorce proceedings a process that rejects blame or victimization a focus on the future that has a well-thought-out plan for parenting and finances. More and more Canadians are turning to this new divorce approach to help them transition to new beginnings. If you are facing the reality of divorce, you owe it to yourself, our chi8ldren, and your bank account to read a book that offers promise, not dread, and calm instead of a storm. "This Practical step-by-step process will not only save considerable time, energy and money, but most of all it will provide a clear path for a hopeful future." —Les Hewitt

Hours (billable hours!) in the courtroom...Whether you are divorcing after a few years of marriage, or as part of a "gray divorce" after practically a lifetime, those are the images "divorce" brings to mind. But what if it doesn't have to be that way? What if your divorce was instead about closing the chapter on a life stage, about giving both parties more freedom, about finding a way to split amicably and in a way that honors what's best for your family instead of being told what's best by the state rubric?In Divorce with Dignity, financial professional Chris Heerlein and family attorney James W. Evans outline the process for an Agreed Divorce, a faster, less expensive and more amicable solution to divorce that is possible when both parties are willing to work together. Together, Heerlein and Evans outline the emotional and financial benefits of Agreed Divorce using a step-by-step walk through the process as well as actual case studies of those whose divorces were amicable, and those whose weren't.

Download or read book Dignity written by Chris Arnade and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2019-06-04 with total page 306 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NATIONAL BESTSELLER "A profound book.... It will break your heart but also leave you with hope." —J.D. Vance, author of Hillbilly Elegy "[A] deeply empathetic book." —The Economist With stark photo essays and unforgettable true stories, Chris Arnade cuts through "expert" pontification on inequality, addiction, and poverty to allow those who have been left behind to define themselves on their own terms. After abandoning his Wall Street career, Chris Arnade decided to document poverty and addiction in the Bronx. He began interviewing, photographing, and becoming close friends with homeless addicts, and spent hours in drug dens and McDonald's. Then he started driving across America to see how the rest of the country compared. He found the same types of stories everywhere, across lines of race, ethnicity, religion, and geography. The people he got to know, from Alabama and California to Maine and Nevada, gave Arnade a new respect for the dignity and resilience of what he calls America's Back Row--those who lack the credentials and advantages of the so-called meritocratic upper class. The strivers in the Front Row, with their advanced degrees and upward mobility, see the Back Row's values as worthless. They scorn anyone who stays in a dying town or city as foolish, and mock anyone who clings to religion or tradition as naïve. As Takeesha, a woman in the Bronx, told Arnade, she wants to be seen she sees herself: "a prostitute, a mother of six, and a child of God." This book is his attempt to help the rest of us truly see, hear, and respect millions of people who've been left behind.

Download or read book Divorce with Sanity written by Richard S. Rabbin and published by . This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 188 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The sad and tragic truth in the U. S. is that more than 50% of all first marriages end in divorce. Most divorces occur within the existing litigated court process, wherein the divorcing parties are almost required by the very nature of the adversarial process to become antagonistic to each other, waste time and money, and treat children as pawns in their power struggle. The physical, emotional, psychological, and financial costs of litigated divorce can be enormous. Now, there is another way: Divorce with Sanity. Richard S Rabbin, a respected Family Law Attorney who has handled countless divorce cases during the past three decades, has written a book that provides people seeking divorce with an entirely different approach to the divorce process. People can separate with dignity, self-respect, and cooperation. They now have the tools to escape the adversarial divorce process and create their own divorce rather than allowing the court to do it for them.

Download or read book F It Get a Divorce written by Steven Kane and published by Createspace Independent Publishing Platform. This book was released on 2018-05-31 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to The Relationship Guide For Optimists. F. Scott Fitzgerald said, "There are no second acts in American lives." He was a literary genius, but a relationship dummy. Or pessimist, anyway. Of course there are second acts in our lives. And nineteenth and 100th acts, too. If you're an optimist, that is. If you optimistically reject that a few words-say, til death do us part-eliminate forever any chance to begin anew. Or that bad decisions, or ones that despite good intentions and efforts turn out poorly, are final. No, optimists think unfortunate, even horrible, situations are natural, inevitable challenges in a well-lived life. Many-most-serious relationships don't last a lifetime. They just don't. But when that happens, here we don't mourn or seethe. Optimistically, we say, well ok, time for a reality check. Recommit and dig in for another attempt at rebirthing the relationship? Maybe. But, maybe not. Perhaps it's time to gently, thoughtfully, caringly put things in order. And take loving care of others. Then go back to that hopeful you, start fresh, search for happiness again. That's what optimists do, right? Fall down but get back up, brush off and keep moving ahead? Sound like you? Or a person you'd like to be, or be again? Then this guide's for you, optimist.
