    Laura Wasser's book, It Doesn't Have to Be That Way: How to Divorce Without Destroying Your Family or Bankrupting Yourself can be purchased here:
    www.amazon.com/Doesnt-Have-Th...
    Laura Wasser addresses an entire generation who want―and need―to handle their breakups differently. It's no secret that the divorce rate in America is more than half the marriage rate. Yet the means for dissolving a relationship often seem hopelessly mired in an outdated perception of how it's supposed to be done. Wasser acknowledges that this generation's realities have evolved greatly since the previous generation's in almost every way, and that they want to get divorced cheaply and efficiently and maintain control of the process themselves. The daughter and partner of a prominent Los Angeles Family Law attorney, she has a deep history in the field, and she knows the available roads to resolution like nobody else. At times psychologist, at times strategist, and distinctly of this generation, Laura and her book will offer readers safer passage through what can be a devastating time, emotionally and financially.

    I was married 25 years. He left and moved into our rental property. He paid the bills except one week he went away after closing our bank account so I had no money and couldn’t use my credit card because the payment was overdue. I went from living in a million dollar home with unlimited credit purchases to nothing in one day!! At least I had a home and a job but didn’t get paid for another 3 weeks. It was the most helpless feeling ever. I was afraid I was going to run out of gas driving to work and back. I had friends and family and had to borrow money from my sister. But it made me think of all the women who are divorced with small children no home domestic violence no job. If I had to do it all over again, I would’ve saved half of everything i made and socked it away! I never want to be in that vulnerable position again.

    I was a paralegal for a well respected family law attorney dealing with complex financial distributions. The best advice being given is know when to call your attorney. Just to leave a message for the attorney was $28.50. Family law attorney's bill on a decimal system. Everything and I mean everything is billed to the clients account. I would see people go through 20k a month in matters that never should have been dealt with by the law firm. Everyone has a fee they are billed out on. Attorney, paralegal, legal assistant and administrative staff have a billing fee. THINK before you call that office! That is how they make their money and that is how you see your retainer go down to a negative balance.

If you labeled them as paralegals 4 that project, when they weren't that's your choice. You're a paralegal or you're not.. RETAINNER AGREEMENTS show the rates. If you were a secretary - you shouldn't be Billing for any project

    Laura's insight on conflating divorce attorneys with mental health professionals is spot-on. Divorce attorneys often bill for every interaction, even those you might deem as amicable. Rather than pouring out your regrets about marriage to a divorce attorney, a move that could prove detrimental to your case and rack up substantial fees, it's wise to seek support from mental health professionals for such personal matters.

    I live in a small town, with a handful of divorce attorneys. And my ex, the morning after I told him I was leaving him and wanted a divorce, cleaned out our joint checking account ( and we have two children so I had to ask him for grocery money, and I had a good-paying job at the time, so it was my money too that he stole from us ) and he made appointments and visited the best two divorce attorneys in our town, so that I would not be able to use them. He got one of the top three as his attorney, and I had to use an old man that should have already retired, he didn't have time for me and didn't care. So I settled for a lot less than I should have gotten, but it was just worth it to get away from the man that was driving us crazy. And my weak attorney told me that it's best to just go quickly and quietly away from a man like this, advised me to settle and just get out, because the clown had joined the circus and would play me every which way but loose. It's sad, but it's true. Some men hate the mother of their children, more than they love their own children.

    I really really like her. Like I literally like her so much and don’t wanna say too much negative, but I do spend a lot of time watching her videos and I had a comment. We all get better at things when we start something new. I just wonder if, a podcast where she is asking questions is the best format. She has so much to say and quite frankly has a lot of knowledge. I don’t know that she needs to bring people on board to ask questions because she doesn’t really let them talk too much. Maybe that’s just me saying that but I know that I’m a lot like that too admittedly. Anyways, love the podcast and great information. I just think she could’ve given it all without having to ask somebody to come on and validate her. We don’t need you to do that. You are awesome

    I 1000% agree with alll these things both from B and Laura W. I also had a divorce custody situation with a legit narcissist and the divorce took a lot longer than marriage. It is totally true. That cooler has prevail and you need to be careful about what information you share to your lawyer in the heat of a moment. They definitely are not your counselor or therapist so don’t let them rack up a bill just to complain about the other party. Time to check in periodically as required. Divorce is a very bumpy road with ups and downs and curves. It is not linear. Keep everything like a business interaction and as much as it can really suck, always be the bigger person and keep your calm. It will pay you back tenfold the judges can also see especially if they see the same divorcing couple over and over again they can read between the lines, especially for the person that cries Wolf over and over and over again.

    Really good discussion. 2 comments: 1, Wasser is right, knowing the law of your state is more pertinent and better prep than a prenup BUT people do move a lot so you may not divorce in the same state where you married. 2, Bethany made a good point about discussions and agreements being reduced to a writing of some sort because it all becomes foggy years later - marriage is a contract and those collateral agreements become an "addendum" or "appendix", in a manner of speaking, to that contract, without having to resort to a costly prenup. It may not always stand up 100% in a court, but it will generally be influential in the outcome.

    Our judge in Dad looking for more time said, "this is enough. You can have as long a lunch as it takes. I don't know this child. Can I make a judgement? Yes. Will it be the right thing for him? I will never know. You two as his parents need to make decisions. Come back with a settlement that leads to 50/50 that you both agree on and I will sign it." She was FINALLY forced to give Dad time. She wasn't allowed to drag it out for years anymore. Child is finally getting happier. Child loves spending time with Dad. He can FINALLY relax. The judge saw the writing on the wall. Judge retired 2 weeks later. The idea of going back to court again (I'm sure we will. It's who she is.) Is super scary.

    I got divorced in 2008, thankfully it was fast BUT I had fucking over a DECADE of mental, physical, emotional, and spiritual torture from that man and unfortunately 2 right afterwards. My daughter was the best thing that came out of my last relationship and I will forever be thankful for her. She truthfully saved my life and kept me away from a truly horrifying sadistic narcissist. And I'm 10,000% better now and in a MUCH better place and relationship now and it has been because of a lot of things that you have taught me. I will never be able to thank you enough for showing me that if I'm intimidating to a man that means he's not the one for me. It took me until I was 41 to find a man that has bigger balls than me. Thank you for teaching me to say yes to myself and what I want for myself and my child and my life.
    You're Just B.....I'm just Dee. I'm the girl and the woman who will never back down, who will keep getting back up after you push me down, and keep forcing myself through the bullshit of life to tell it that it hits like a bitch.

I like it.

    My suggestion after having worked with divorce attorneys - if at all possible do a settlement agreement with a paralegal if it is allowed in your state Attorneys will drag on the process of your divorce, billing and sometimes double billing to run up the fees. If your attorney is dragging out your process, put pressure on them to finalize the matter or they will do nothing but bilk you out of your money!

    Right now the problem with some prenuptial agreements is that the monied spouse often requires the non monied spouse to give up virtually all of their rights. Then, at the time of divorce, the non-monied spouse does not understand why the prenuptial agreement will be enforceable and they are stuck with little to nothing relative to their lifestyle. To convince a non-monied spouse to sign, the monied spouse accuses them of being money hungry if they do not agree. (Essentially, if a non-monied spouse gives up 50% of their rights rather than 90% of their rights, they get accused of being money hungry. In the meanwhile, the non-monied spouse does not realize that after 10 plus years of marriage, it is hard to re enter the workplace.) For the non-monied spouse, prenuptial agreements are never to help them. Divorce Lawyer Sue

    My son's wife just had a baby and didnt want to be married anymore so she took out a fake restraining order and got my son and his disabled son 6 year old son out of the house after 3 years of marriage. He cannot afford a lawyer but she has 2 powerhouse lawyers, free, from the domestic violence group. She ends up with everything, even a van my brother left for my son and my 6 year old grandson on his covid deathbed, half his pension, alimony and of course child support . Him and my grandson have to live with me or they would be homeless not able to afford to pay rent. Men unfortunately are usually on the losing end most times. They are going into their 5th mediation and not divorced yet. She ruined his life and the kids lives!!!

    I have a family member, who is going through a very rough time in her marriage right now, that may or may not, end up in divorce. They married when supposedly neither one had much money but it appears, that he has more than he's willing to share. She really doesn't know much about his finances and to me, it looks like he's trying to hide the information. There may also be some family money involved, that she is not privy to even know about. It just seems very murky to me. She is definitely not a gold digger, and has been ok with the way things have been and still are, financially. I can't help but think though, there's a lot more, that he's not willing to share. There are other things in their marriage going on, that take precedent, but if it does end up in divorce, I would want her to have all the information necessary and how to go about it.

    Hi Here's some feedback: 1. Let the expert talk more and keep your questions short and specific to the topic 2. Don't interrupt the expert otherwise it is not possible to understand the full argument or advice 3. Limit your commentary to your solo shows; I think Laura charges about $1k per hour and it was a waste when she only talked a short period; It's ok to have a dialogue or even disagreement but discussion should be balanced 4. Avoid repetition of facts and ideas; many items were already mentioned and repeated in different ways but saying the same thing 5. Why ask an expert to rate you? it came across as narcissistic and need to feed ego; people who are secure don't have to ask for validation. Constantly mentioning that you are an "expert", "pro", etc. is not appealing. Many people who have divorced know a lot about divorce but that doesn't make them legal experts. There was a lot of talk about common sense things but those aren't legal tips.

      @@joniheisenberg if you had watched any of the previous videos in this series you’d know that Bethenny has said many times it was a crappy prenup. She has said several times she never thought he’d come for her money. The prenup wasn’t made public nor should it have been. The 10 year length of the divorce had as much to do with custody as it did with money.
      He wasn’t able to negate anything. In the end Frankel ended up with full legal custody as well as primary residential custody of their daughter and the title to her Tribeca home ( the home that the ex was trying to get ).
      Anyone can contest a prenup. Anyone can contest a divorce.
      Constructive enough for you?
      It’s hard not to get emotional when you’ve been through something similar (albeit on a much smaller scale).

    Your assets before you met, are the only assets you are entitled to - that's the way it should be.

    Not sure about this Lawyer, but in watching the divorce series, I can see Bethenny is still unwilling to take responsibility for the collapse of her marriage. A marriage is a team collaboration and Bethenny is unable to grasp the concept of team. She is a right-fighter and me person. Her willingness to disparage Jason and his humble family is more proof of her narcissism.

      She also doesn't talk about the specifics of the prenup. I'm certain Jason knew that he had rights to a very large amount of money and B simply didn't want to agree to that, so she drug it along. She said she offered him $2mill, so I bet the prenup said he would get a much larger portion of the business net worth and assets. Hey B, what did your prenup say?
