Cindy Harari, Esq. Parents & Divorce: "We need to talk."

If you are a separated or divorced parent, you need to communicate with your child’s other parent. Even though you are no longer living together, and, in some cases, especially because you are no longer living together, conflicts about your children (minor ones and major ones) may arise with greater frequency. What do you do? Hopefully, you calmly discuss and resolve issues such as pick-ups and drop-offs, schedule changes, money, extracurricular activities, and family matters with your c… Continue

So you had a bad day….whatcha gonna do about it? Well, here ar… Continue

Ashley Davis Bush If the Buddha Divorced

Helping clients take the peaceful path while divorcing is a two-pronged approach. There’s the behavioral piece (not hiring a killer attorney, not making your ex an enemy, not badmouthing your ex) and there’s the emotional piece. In my experience, clients need to commit emotionally to doing the inner work to avoid becoming a bitter victim. I have turned to some of the wisdom and compassion of Buddhism as a template for guiding clients to find that inner well-spring of peace, even while going thro… Continue

Belinda Rachman, Esq. Divorce Lawyers and the Reptilian Brain

No one goes into marriage thinking they will divorce one day, but if half of all marriages end in divorce, as the statistics tell us, the chance of a couple staying together are about 50/50, which may be a good bet or bad bet - depending on whether or not you like to gamble. There is only one sure bet about divorce, and that is this: hiring a divorce lawyer will only make things more expensive and nasty. I have seen some rackets in my day, but none surpass the self-serving nut house that is our… Continue

Our Internet radio program, Get Your Justice Live, is dedicated to reform of the broken divorce and domestic violence industry. This system is such a mess you can actually show it is destroying the U.S. single handedly by destroying our children. The bulk of crime, drug usage, gang violence, school drop outs, rape, mental health and more are all directly traceable to fatherlessness and sole custody orders. This makes divorce judges the most prolific child abusers on the planet. This is old news… Continue

Cindy Harari, Esq. New Florida Statute Provides Help For Families During & After Divorce

Current research indicates that one of the most reliable predictors of a child's success after their parents' separation and divorce is how well their parents get along. However, most separated or divorced parents find it quite challenging to peacefully reach common ground with their child's other parent. Often, despite parents' best efforts to protect them, children see too much, hear too much and feel their parents' simmering anger. Some children get a stomach ache every time they have to tra… Continue

Cynthia Tiano, Esq. Bashing Your Ex is Bad News for Your Children

Member Rosalind Sedacca, CCT wrote this important post. Please read and pass it on! **** We all do it from time to time. Make a sarcastic comment about our ex, criticize something they did or didn't do, gesture or grimace our faces when referring to our former spouse. When we do it in front of, near or within hearing distance of our children, we set ourselves up for a hornet's nest of problems. We have all heard this, but it's easy to forget or let slide. It hurts our children when they… Continue

Laura Campbell When Will It End?!

When will it end? Have you ever found yourself asking this question?? Perhaps you ask it about a particular day. About a particular meeting. About a situation. About a moment in time. The real question is….What is IT? When we are going through a divorce, we seem to ask ourselves this question over and over again….thinking that the “IT” is the divorce.
