This Third Edition of A Guide to Managing Separation and Divorce, will provide practical and non-legal advice with the aim of minimising unnecessary costs and achieving outcomes the whole family can live with. There are two main elements to separation; emotional fall-out and financial fall-out. By adopting the suggested measures people will manage their situation better and get the most from their professional advisers. The old fashioned concept of instructing your solicitor to 'sort' your divorce/separation is no longer the norm. Most clients will find they work alongside several professionals in addition to their solicitor whether that is a mediator, family counsellor or financial adviser. It is important that the client knows how to get the best out of their 'team' whilst still being affordable.
