How to save money on a divorce

On Behalf of | May 18, 2018 | Collaborative Divorce |

Pennsylvania residents and others who choose to get divorced could spend up to $1 million to end their marriage. However, there are ways to keep divorce costs to a reasonable level. For instance, it can be a good idea to engage in collaborative divorce as opposed to opting for litigation. This process involves both parties working with their legal counsel to negotiate an end to the marriage.

It is important to note that if an agreement isn’t reached, both parties to the divorce may need to find new attorneys. In addition to legal counsel, collaborative divorces could involve financial advisers and therapists who can help a couple work through their issues. Regardless of how a person chooses to pursue a divorce, it can be a good idea to have a big-picture view as opposed to trying to win every battle.

A willingness to negotiate can be helpful for parents because they will need to have a relatively civil relationship for the sake of their children. Therefore, being flexible during negotiations can help keep the peace in the long term. To increase the odds of a timely divorce settlement, individuals should do whatever it takes to stay in a positive mental mindset. This could include talking to a therapist or taking time to meditate on a regular basis.

A collaborative divorce may make it easier to talk through issues as opposed to going to court to dissolve a marriage. By communicating in an honest and open manner, an individual may be able to obtain a favorable settlement in a timely manner. An attorney might help create settlement offers or review any offer that has been made. This may make it more likely that the agreement is in a person’s best interest.
