On the bright side, perhaps divorce is losing a little bit of its stigma (that it’s ultimately a ‘failure’ that should never be celebrated) – when the reality is that divorce is mostly part of many people’s journey in learning about relationships and love – and families changing form.   How many people divorce and ten years later feel that they made a big mistake?  Not that many, I would bet.  Especially those who continue to have a healthy co-parenting...

Will new online co-parenting software keep parents out of jail?

  In the last few months, we have seen a few high profile examples of how adversarial breakup can lead to losing £900,000 – and even lead to a prison sentence.

Divorce lawyers and marketing – do they mix well?

  This week I may have lost some potential clients, by telling them things they didn’t want to hear. And fair enough.  We all prefer to work with people who reinforce what we believe, and it’s terribly annoying when someone contradicts us – especially if we’ve just spent a whole load of time and energy working hard on something only to get it dismissed out of hand by someone claiming to know more about marketing than us.   However, lawyers are not generally...
