Divorce can result in enormous costs and create emotional upheaval - but much of that can be avoided simply by talking to the right people at the right time. As the Alternative Divorce Guide - independent of lawyers or any other profession - I guide families towards the best ways to avoid an adversarial divorce, and this has brought me positive press and TV coverage in the UK, and I am a guest blogger on both the UK and US Huffington Post.
This online directory is complimentary and many of the experts on this site offer free initial introductory calls/skype sessions, to help you understand exactly what services you really need, and at what point in the process you need them!
I created the first UK Divorce Expos in 2010 and the SOS Starting Over Shows have spun off into offering Divorce Advice from the experts in this Alternative Divorce Directory - all part of helping educate people on how to avoid adversarial divorce.
More and more people are turning away from adversarial divorce and finding a path towards healthy co-parenting, sustainable financial settlements and hope for the future. This online directory is part of how I aim to guide people away from high costs and unhappy broken families - towards making the right choices and creating happy extended families.

The first few months and years after separation require adjustments, but when couples move on, parents enter into new relationships. This can mean that whereas one couple were involved before with the co-parenting, now step-parents and more become involved. Blended families bring their own challenges – and not forgetting the important role of grandparents, who may also need to be included. Possible solutions: Plan as early as possible. Work out a Parenting Plan as to who is to care for the children and when. ...
Nigel shares how difficult it can be to integrate families post-divorce. Sometimes the ‘new wife’ can be a powerful force for peace! Demi Moore & Bruce Willis who are masters of managing the ‘blended family’. Gwyneth Paltrow & Chris Martin also stayed friends through their “conscious uncoupling.” Or you may have heard of Ben Affleck’s divorce where the couple agreed to have separate homes on the same property so their three children can be near both parents. How would it be to have a divorce like Melanie Griffith...
BBC Radio Leicester Interview with Collaborative Practitioner and Family Lawyer James Belderbos Summer – and the school summer holidays in particular – can bring stress to many families. We are familiar with the pressures that Christmas can bring with families thrown together over the festive period, but the summer holidays can also create stress and opportunities for conflict. Sadly, like Christmas, the aftermath of a family holiday can be too much to bear for some couples, who then consider separation. All...
What are the symptoms that can affect people who are going through a divorce? Life itself is stressful enough without the added stress caused by marital breakdown. Common symptoms that I witness as a life coach and hypnotherapist often supporting people through their divorce stress, are worry and anxiety about the future (financially and emotionally) which often leads to erratic sleep patterns. When sleep is lacking it often leads to irritability, frustration, lack of energy and problems with concentration. This can then result...
As a Chartered Financial Planner, I often help women who are dealing with divorce, and in this particular case, I helped a woman who wanted to complete a divorce in an amicable fashion – but was also worried about her retirement in years to come. Would she have enough money to live off and maintain her quality of life? And how would working with me be useful to her? What exactly is the role of a divorce Financial Planner? At first, the lady concerned (let’s call her “Andrea”) didn’t really understand why she would need the...
“I’m going to my mother’s!” (and slamming the door) doesn’t let you off the hook if the marital home has a mortgage on it and you decide to get a divorce. If your name is on the mortgage, you are as liable as your spouse for the payments. So getting divorce financial advice early on is a good idea. What’s yours is his and what’s his, is yours – including debts and mortgages. And if the payments are not made, your credit history will be damaged. So getting to a place of financial independence as soon as possible –...
According to the Mirror, lawyers estimate that the average cost of a UK divorce is – in real terms – £70,243 and rising – with the average person losing out on £4,686 of their salary, with an added £5,089 on finding alternative accommodation, £8,926 in legal fees and £51,543 in paying off debt and sharing assets. Of course, if the divorce starts to get ‘out of hand’ – then legal fees can begin to soar. I spoke recently with a mother who has had to borrow over £80,000 from her family to pay for legal fees...
I hear a lot of about collaborative lawyers and the good work they do helping couples navigate the complex process of separation and divorce. Perhaps the collaborative model would be best for Brexit – legal advice to hand, yet ultimately, collaboration and clear communication (rather than game-playing) the order of the day? And a lot more private too. Several celebrity couples have gone through a collaborative divorce. Singer and performer Madonna and her former husband director Guy Ritchie are considered to be the...
A recent question came up in our Secret Facebook Group about what is the best online divorce provider. It’s a good question to ask, because the feedback I have had from many people who have used them, is that the quality of the service can vary enormously. But I notice the real problem they have, is that their expectations about what a divorce actually involves, are often way out of kilter. The person asking the question in this case seemed very much in control of the process and was presumably looking for a simple way to finish it off...
In this Brooklands Radio Surrey interview with Theta Healer Debbie Talalay, Debbie explains how Theta Healing is a quick and powerful way to heal the mind of subconscious blocks – and also physical problems. She relates an incredible story about a Theta Healing client who reported that her Psoriasis disappeared overnight, and how she has helped people with Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome. “Debbie Talalay – wow, if you haven’t been to see Debbie yet, then you just must. Went to see her and...
