The Practical Aspects of Divorce

  • Gain insight and learn answers to the “how, what, where, when, why” questions of divorce.
  • Decrease legal expenses while increasing your knowledge of the divorce process and how it will affect you - today and years down the road.
  • Get an accurate picture of not only your divorce but your life after divorce.
  • Address your financial issues and accept the importance of knowing about the money in your life.
  • Deal with all the issues and create a realistic settlement that is fair to all parties but will not lessen your quality of life.

Jamie Thomas, Divorce Network

Jamie Thomas learned the process of “divorce recovery” first hand by not only living through it but by recognizing that merely surviving divorce is not enough. She found when going through her own (second) divorce after a twelve year marriage that many aspects of the process were left unexplained. Although she worked with a good attorney, information she had expected to get from her lawyer was not forthcoming. The reason, she discovered, is that many problems and situations which have to be dealt with during the process of a divorce do not fall into the realm of legal help. Therein lies the reason for establishing a business which “fills in the gaps”. Jamie teaches women what they will need to know during their divorce on a general, elementary though very broad level - a kind of Divorce 101. Jamie founded the Divorce Network in 1996.
