new-year-resolutionLike most New Year’s Resolutions accomplishing the goal of getting a divorce is challenging. Both emotionally and financially.  Much like losing weight successfully a successful divorce is not accomplished overnight but through careful planning and attention to detail.   While moving forward with a divorce may be the ultimate goal many people have no idea where to start.  For example:  Does your spouse have any idea this is your New Year’s Resolution?  If not, how do you break the news?  If you have children, do you have a plan as to who will have custody?  Do you have a list of all of your assets?  Equally important, do you have a list of all of your debts?  Have you considered how you are going to reach your goal?  Through mediation or litigation?  These questions are just the beginning.  If you have questions about the divorce process please contact one of our experienced attorneys at IANDOLI & EDENS (908) 879-9499.
