ABOUT
Are you in a marriage lacking respect or support? Do you deal with constant sarcasm, belittling, or deep-rooteded insults? Have repeated efforts to repair communication failed?  Has your marriage drifted into the "Roommate" dynamic? Unresolved Infidelity or betrayal is a lasting serious problem. A spouse with a Chronic Addiction and no hope of recovery means your life is an emotional roller coaster. Do you feel completely drained?   Relieved at the thought of being single? If you have an abusive partner, the abuse is not going to stop; leaving the marriage is the healthiest option.

How to leave the marriage can be perplexing.  In my years of dissolving marriages, the best practice occurs when one partner is simply up front with the other partner.  Being up front and candid promotes emotional stability and financial security.  On the other hand, surprising your partner with a process-server at the front door typically results in on-going battles.

Settlements are cost effective --- battles are expensive.
Civil, quiet divorces make life easier for both spouses.

If one partner wants to dissolve the marriage, then the marriage will be dissolved.  So, how do you want to do it?
