Are ‘pet prenups’ the next big thing?

Last updated on April 8, 2021

Attitudes toward prenuptial agreements have undergone a remarkable transformation over the last decade, as more and more people have started to see them as a valuable tool that can save them time, money and energy in the event of a divorce as opposed to just a tacit acknowledgement that their marriage is destined for failure.

Pre-divorce considerations, post-dissolution realities

Last updated on April 8, 2021

For myriad reasons, people in failing marriages in Georgia and elsewhere often spend much time — sometimes years — continuing to languish in their unhappy union while simultaneously thinking of making positive changes. Friends and neighbors might talk. Going it alone would be too scary. The disruptions related to and following a divorce would be […]

In a military divorce, a service pension can be vitally important

Last updated on April 8, 2021

As noted in a recent media report, the biggest battle some military servicemembers ever face has nothing to do with foreign enemies of the United States. Rather, it is focused upon the disposition of a hard-earned military pension during the divorce process. Of course, divorcing spouses of servicemembers — whether they themselves served in the […]

Singular divorce considerations for seniors, Part 2

Last updated on April 8, 2021

We pointed out in our immediately preceding blog post that “divorcing seniors have a highly singular and age-specific set of divorce-related issues that they must often contend with.” Our May 20 entry didn’t get into specifics. We do that today. Here’s one, and a divorce consideration that doesn’t feature nearly as often in dissolution matters […]

Same issues for all divorcing age groups? Not hardly

Last updated on April 8, 2021

We have commented in past select blog posts on the organic nature of divorce and the highly variable issues that might feature in a given case in Georgia or elsewhere.

An invaluable divorce option for some couples: mediated divorce

Last updated on April 8, 2021

We noted in our immediately preceding blog post that, “There are alternatives to marriage-ending adversarialism played out in a courtroom.” As we stated in our May 8 entry, one of those options is mediated divorce, which can offer couples a number of distinct benefits compared with the traditional take-it-to-court approach in given cases. One of […]

Special divorce considerations for high-profile, wealthy couples

Last updated on April 8, 2021

Why might ultra-wealthy families in Georgia and elsewhere seek to avail themselves of a so-called “alternative dispute resolution” process rather than proceeding to a courtroom to effect a divorce? The acronym ADR is often used as a shorthand to denote family law processes such as divorce mediation or collaborative divorce, which are avenues that a […]

Focus: on husband-wife business teams: It’s key to plan ahead

Last updated on April 8, 2021

“No couple contemplates splitting the baby.” So says Frank Jaffe, a certified financial planner who notes that, when about to establish a husband-wife business enterprise, few couples think of anything other than how they might best grow their operation and prosper over the long term.
