My deepest sympathies go out to you.

My first advice, hire the best divorce lawyer you can find. Get references from people you trust before choosing one.

Get a lawyer on retainer, what's civil now may not be after a trip to the mediator. Believe it or not, even people you think you know will look you squarely in the eyes and without blinking lie to you.

Please don't sign anything in advance of a lawyer reading it. Be wary of what you're told and careful with what you say.

I realize this ain't a very positive post, but based on personal experience there's simply not much I can say that is positive about going through a divorce. CD
