Settle Early

The best advice I can give to some clients is to settle their divorce case early, if they are fully informed of all the facts of their case. What do I mean? Lets say that your husband is feeling guilty about something he did, like cheating on you...

Many times a spouse with a guilty conscience is willing to settle their divorce case on favorable terms to thier wife or husband in some cases. Guilt is a great motivator. However, as a divorce case drags on in the courts the guilty conscience heals or they hire a lawyer who can talk them out of giving everything away. The moral of the story is if you see a great deal on the table, take it. People change their minds. What is being offered in the begining of the divorce case may not be what ultimately happens.
