Coming Together to Come Apart

May 21, 2020 By Family Peacemaker staff - s.h.

By Kim Johnson Just two sentences with a total of 12 words. A seemingly unemotional announcement, yet my life as I knew it completely dissolved within a matter of seconds.

Recovering from the Pain of Divorce

May 21, 2020 By Family Peacemaker staff - s.h.

By Kristin McDaniel I never expected to be divorced, but when my husband of ten years told me he wanted a divorce on Christmas Eve, I had no say in the matter. I didn’t know what to do, and wondered how I would care for three young children alone. The first month I cried a lot and could barely get out of bed.

To file a motion, you have to interview the client on the issues. Maybe an hour’s worth of discussion. Let’s assume the attorney is billing at $350/hour. Then the attorney has to prepare the … [Read more...] about The Efficiency of Communication

The Role of a Collaborative Divorce Coach

May 21, 2020 By Family Peacemaker staff - s.h.

Written by Jann Glasser Divorce is just as much a life transition as marriage. Divorce is not about the division of property; it is about the division of lives. Closure rarely comes with the decree of dissolution issued by the court. Closure can come more easily though, through Collaborative Divorce, where the professional team helps to facilitate peacemaking rather than helping the … [Read more...] about The Role of a Collaborative Divorce Coach
