AFTER ASKING YOURSELF THE IMPORTANT QUESTIONS, PREPARE FOR THE PROCESS

both parties may end up fearing the future. Changes in financial stability might mean you have to start working again or pick up a second job. An important factor to consider when thinking about getting a divorce is whether you have the skills to get a job that allows you to support yourself and your children. If you can’t accept these changes, you are not ready for a divorce. If you are unable to accept the negative consequences of divorce — both seen and unseen — you are probably not ready to go through the process of divorce. However, if you understand and accept that you will face negative consequences out of your control, you may be ready to move forward. Understand that the process won’t be perfect, but if you can accept these negative consequences, you will be able to make it through in the long haul. View our predivorce checklist at www.attorneymcclure.com/pre-divorce-checklist to help you decide if you’re ready for the process of divorce.

Most individuals going through a divorce are totally unprepared for the process, even if they are the ones who want the divorce. The decision to go through a divorce can lead to years of negative consequences, some of which are not easily anticipated. Once a divorce begins, it’s not uncommon for one or both spouses to realize they weren’t ready for the process. EMOTIONAL One important thing to realize is that a divorce does not happen in a vacuum. Every party involved — you, your spouse, your children, your parents, your in-laws, extended family, and friends — experiences their own level of pain associated with your divorce. While the decision to divorce may be centered on two people and their children, most people are not prepared for the impact their decision will have on all of those who love them. FINANCIAL Emotional pain is not the only negative consequence of divorce. Often, both spouses’ finances are impacted, which can challenge their standards of living. There is a good chance both parties will lose their financial stability. Divorcing is not cheap, and At the Law Office of Don E.
