What Are My Options? Just A Solicitor Or Mediator, Right..?

This is your divorce. And there is no ‘one size fits all’. You know, better than anyone else, the things which worry you the most. Maybe it’s navigating the emotional side, maybe it’s the arrangements for your children, maybe it’s better understanding your financial position and what life after divorce might look like. All these issues can and should be navigated, and for most couples are better dealt with before you speak to a lawyer or engage in mediation.

One of the best ways to navigate divorce well is to keep control of your divorce. Don’t delegate it to someone else. The divorces we see that have really spiralled out of control are ones where the two people involved have, in effect, become passengers in the divorce litigation.

If you can possibly help it, don’t let that happen. Get help at an early stage from a range of professionals (and none of this needs to break the bank, just a couple of sessions will often do the trick). That way, by the time you start to take legal advice you’ll be in the right frame of mind, and be able to identify the areas in which you do (and don’t) need help.
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
You can budget for everything else in life, there is no reason at all why you can’t also budget for divorce, and together keep hold of the reins.
