What are some things I can do to make sure my divorce settlement is fair?
Divorce is one of the most difficult times in someone's life. It's important to try your best to negotiate a fair settlement, and it may be helpful to know what some things you can do to make sure that you're receiving a fair amount in your settlement.
Starting the Process
When starting the process, it's important to keep an open mind and be willing to listen to what your lawyer has to say about the best possible outcome for you in this situation, even if you don't always agree with him or her. You need to know that he or she is acting in your best interest, and if you feel like they aren't, then it's important that you find someone who will do what needs to be done for you.
Understanding the needs of your spouse
It's also important to understand the needs of your spouse (if applicable) as well and consider how those could impact what would happen in this divorce settlement. It's easy when considering divorce settlement amounts and support payments to focus on yourself and forget about the other person involved.
Always consult your lawyer
Divorce settlements can be an extremely complex and intimidating endeavor. It's important to have a lawyer on your side who's not afraid to fight for you and your interests, even when it comes to the seemingly petty details of your divorce. But there are some strategies that you can employ yourself that will help ensure that you get the fairest settlement possible.
