When it comes to divorce, there can be confusion, and intense emotions surrounding it. Divorce often brings out the worst in people. Divorce can be incredibly difficult for clients whether couples show anger toward one another or deep sadness over their situation. Due to this fact, divorce lawyers are typically very empathetic, as they offer non-judgemental counsel and legal advice. The legal process of divorce can be confusing for some individuals and can produce many misconceptions. The following is intended to provide clarity surrounding divorce.
- Divorce is simple and predictable. Divorces are very rarely referred to as simple. Each couple is unique, as well as the assets they possess, and the children they may have together. Settling the terms of the divorce, division of assets, and custody can be grueling for some couples, as well as their attorneys. Thankfully, not every situation is like that, as some couples may have a clear idea of what they want to fight for, and what they will give their spouse. Experienced divorce lawyers such as those at Felt Family Law & Mediation are there to help their clients at every step of the process.
- Clients can share whatever they want about their spouse and divorce without any consequences. This misconception may greatly impact the outcome of a client’s divorce. If a client chooses to vent or share explicit information regarding their spouse or marital problems on the internet it may result in consequences. When something is posted on social media, it can and will be used against them in the divorce trial. While it is tempting to vent to your followers, family, and friends online, it might actually hurt your case. Judges typically look down on that kind of behavior and may be swayed to rule in favor of the other spouse. Custody battles can be determined by whether or not the client has spoken ill of their spouse online or not. This is why divorce lawyers strongly encourage their clients to refrain from speaking about their divorce or their spouse online. Instead, clients are advised to find a trusted friend or therapist who is removed from the situation to be the client’s listening ear and safe place. Of course, clients can talk to their divorce lawyers as what is said will be kept confidential.
- Clients can expect certain outcomes of their divorce, based on others’ experiences. Some clients may think that since their neighbor, friend, or family member’s divorce ended in a certain way, their divorce will have a similar outcome. Each divorce is unique, with its assets, and custody of children. Therefore, the outcome of each divorce case will be just as unique. Clients should have realistic expectations regarding their divorce process, as well as the outcome that be occur.
