How to make a divorce as amicable as possible. Here are our 5 key tips for a good divorce:

  1. Seek specialist, legal advice early on! Finding out where you stand helps you to stay in control, reduce stress and set realistic expectations.
  2. Communicate – try to keep the lines of communication open with your spouse or partner. When there are children involved, it can make the process even more difficult – particularly if the parents aren’t communicating.
  3. Gather your financial information. Knowing what you have as an individual and a family is key to the start of the resolution process.
  4. Seek support – remember that it is ok to ask for help if you need it than to try and go it alone.  Divorce can be challenging for so many reasons, and if you feel that you are struggling to cope, or that your child isn’t managing the situation well, never hesitate to reach out for support.
  5. Be open to alternative dispute resolution – Court is stressful and expensive when other, better options are now available.
