Going Through A Divorce?

Whether the process has started or you are just contemplating divorce, matters need to be addressed: financial short and long term goals, parenting plan, paperwork or maybe, the possibility that the dissolution can be more peaceful via divorce mediation.

  • Most people are paralyzed by the daunting process of divorce. Fear and confusion arise due to the lack of knowledge regarding how a divorce may affect finances, budgets, children and life in general. Most men and women wonder:

    • Will I be able to afford to keep the house?

    • How much money can I expect to receive in support?

    • Do I get half the business? The retirement assets? The debt?

    Jo-Ann Little is a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst with extensive experience mediating divorces and working with individuals to negotiate divorce settlements. For more information, contact-us or call (619)-483-1576.

  • Questions most often asked:

    • Should I be the petitioner?

    • What does Date of Separation mean?

    • Will I see my children 50% of the time? Will I get more than 50% custody?

  • One of the difficult aspects of divorce, and sometimes the most painful, concerns the kids. From custody to visitation arrangements, questions arise and need answers sooner rather than later.

    • What is an appropriate custody schedule for kids at certain ages?

    • If we need to change our child custody schedule, how do we do that?

    • What if I want to take my child on an extended vacation?
