Whether you and your spouse have struggled through months of counseling or you are simply seeking advice on how to protect your assets, children, and peace of mind, there is hope. No matter where you are in the process, you can make it through and recover your dignity, balance, and perspective.
This ebook, 101 FAQs about Getting Divorced in Virginia: Smart Answers to Common Questions, aims to answer pressing and diverse questions about the Virginia divorce process. While it is not a legal guide and should not be construed as legal advice, the book will help you organize your thinking, anticipate potential issues, and gain insight into what challenges and opportunities your future may hold.
What to Expect
The book is organized into several sections, each addressing urgent concerns of those newly separated. Divorce can be daunting, particularly when it comes to managing complex issues like child custody, spousal support, and asset division. This resource provides quick references to help you plan and meet unexpected scenarios, such as a spouse falsely accusing you of wrongdoing or hiring a tough divorce attorney.
