Amicable Divorce

Should I use a Divorce mediator to save money in an amicable divorce?
My husband of 14 years wants a divorce. We have gone to counseling, and he is unwilling to try to save the marriage. Even though I am hurt, I cannot force him to love me. We have two young children. I currently work part-time and go to college full-time. We agree on how much support I would need, and what kind of visitation and property split would occur. Should we try a mediator and forgo lawyers?
you can try a mediator first and see if that works out..it is can be court ordered and signed by both parties, but at least consult with a lawyer for legal advise on this..

Adolescents After Divorce $18.42 When their parents divorce, some children falter and others thrive. This book asks why. Is it the custody arrangement? A parent’s new partner? Conflicts or consistency between the two households? "Adolescents after Divorce" follows children from 1,100 divorcing families to discover what makes the difference. Focusing on a period beginning four years after the divorce, the authors have the articulate, often insightful help of their subjects in exploring the altered conditions of their lives. These teenagers come from a wide range of backgrounds. Some are functioning well. Some are faring poorly. The authors examine the full variety of situations in which these children find themselves once the initial disruption has passed–whether parents remarry or repartner, how parents relate to each other and to their children, and how life in two homes is integrated. Certain findings emerge–for instance, we see that remarried new partners were better accepted than cohabiting new partners. And when parents’ relations are amicable, adolescents in dual custody are less likely than other adolescents to experience loyalty conflicts. The authors also consider the effects of visitation arrangements, the demands made and the goals set within each home, and the emotional closeness of the residential parent to the child. A gold mine of information on a topic that touches so many Americans, this study will be crucial for researchers, counselors, lawyers, judges, and parents. |

Between Two Worlds: The Inner Lives Of Children Of Divorce $9.29 A compelling new study reveals the true effects of divorce An astonishing one quarter of adults between the ages of eighteen and thirty-five have grown up in divorced families. Now, as this generation comes of age, Between Two Worlds will speak to them like no other book. Elizabeth Marquardt (together with sociologist Norval Glenn) conducted a pioneering new national study of the children of divorce, surveying 1,500 young adults from both divorced and intact families and interviewing more than seventy of them at length. In Between Two Worlds , she weaves the findings of that study together with powerful, unsentimental stories of the childhoods of young people from divorced families as well as her own story of growing up as a child of divorce. She asks us to acknowledge that children are profoundly shaped by divorce, even though, as adults, they might be accomplished and seem "fine." While many experts maintain that there are "good divorces," praise the idea of "blended families," and assure divorced parents that kids are resilient, Marquardt calls this "happy talk" and warns that it causes children to bury their real feelings. The hard truth, she says, is that while divorce is sometimes necessary, there is no such thing as a good divorce. An amicable divorce is certainly better than a bitter one, but even amicable divorces sow lasting inner conflict in the lives of children. When a family breaks in two, children who stay in touch with both parents must travel between two worlds, trying alone to reconcile their parents’ often strikingly different beliefs, values, and ways of living. Even a "good divorce" restructures childhood itself. Not surprisingly, many children of divorce seem like old souls. Often they feel like they have a different identity in each of their parents’ worlds. Secrets are epidemic. Home feels less safe, and they are far less likely than the children of intact marriages to go to their parents for comfort or emotional support. Some question their parents’ morality and choices. Like their peers from intact families, they long for spirituality, but their feelings of loss, mistrust, and anger toward their parents deeply complicate their spiritual journeys even translating into anger at God. Marquardt’s data is undeniably compelling, but at the heart of her book are stories of reunions with one parent that were always partings from the other, of struggles to adapt to a parent’s moods, of the burden of having to figure out the important questions in life alone. Authoritative, beautifully written, and filled with brave, sad, unflinchingly honest voices, Between Two Worlds is a book of transforming power for the adult children of divorce, whose real experiences have for too long gone unrecognized. Based on a pioneering new study, Between Two Worlds is a book of transforming power for anyone who grew up with divorced parents. After the divorce , our parents may no longer have been |

Between Two Worlds: The Inner Lives of Children of Divorce $8.64 Is there really such a thing as a "good divorce"? Determined to uncover the truth, Elizabeth Marquardt–herself a child of divorce–conducted, with Professor Norval Glenn, a pioneering national study of children of divorce, surveying 1,500 young adults from both divorced and intact families between 2001 and 2003. In "Between Two Worlds," she weaves the findings of that study together with powerful, unsentimental stories of the childhoods of young people from divorced families. The hard truth, she says, is that while divorce is sometimes necessary, even amicable divorces sow lasting inner conflict in the lives of children. When a family breaks in two, children who stay in touch with both parents must travel between two worlds, trying alone to reconcile their parents’ often strikingly different beliefs, values, and ways of living. Authoritative, beautifully written, and alive with the voices of men and women whose lives were changed by divorce, Marquardt’s book is essential reading for anyone who grew up "between two worlds." "Makes a persuasive case against the culture of casual divorce."" "–"Washington Post " "A poignant narrative of her own experience . . . Marquardt says she and other young adults who grew up in the divorce explosion of the 1970s and 1980s are still dealing with wounds that they could never talk about with their parents."–"Chicago Tribune " |

Divorce Decisions: Practical Ways to Protect Yourself, Your Children, and Your Wallet $3.94 When you face a difficult situation or a tough fight, it helps to have a wise coach and an understanding friend in your corner. Family lawyer Marjorie Just, author of "Divorce Decisions: Practical Ways to Protect Yourself, Your Career, Your Children and Your Wallet," offers both to anyone going through a divorce or termination of a domestic partnership.During her more than 15 years in practice, the author has seen it all, from the most acrimonious courtroom battles to the most amicable settlements–and everything in between.But what makes this book so authentic is that the author has been through it herself. "After watching my clients go through the pain and upheaval of divorce, I went through it myself, and made many of the same mistakes they did. Even though I should have known better," says Marjorie Just of the Maryland-based firm, Offit Kurman.Ms. Just explains that the decision to divorce is just the beginning of a series of important decisions for you and your family. Making these decisions with forethought and deliberation can help you avoid the pitfalls. Ms. Just offers legal insight and practical guidance."This is a useful and informative book. … Having the knowledge gleaned from a reading of this book equips that person with the tools necessary to navigate the often dangerous waters of separation and divorce. … The author has, with this book, provided a useful service and considerable help to an ever-increasing number of people."–Aaron Satloff, MD, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry, U. of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry, Distinguished Life Fellow, American Psychiatric Association"Divorce Decisions" provides a guidebook to the process including: * Choosing a divorce process: negotiation or litigation, mediation or collaborative practice.* Selecting a lawyer or representative.* Minimizing emotional trauma for yourself and your children* Saving money on legal fees* Keeping the costs and the process from spiraling out of control* Forming a support system* How modern technology can play a role in divorce* Preventing this from happening again. "Reliable guidance about locating the skillful, reasonable lawyer who will aim toward durable long term solutions that benefit all members of the post-divorce family rather than the gladiator who fights without regard to financial, relational, and emotional costs is hard to find–or rather, has been hard to find, until Marjorie Just wrote this book."–Pauline H.
