Marital Property Agreements Dividing Assets and Income In Texas, there is no "legal separation" - you are either married, or you are divorced. As a result, individuals are often in a quandary as to how to protect and/or divide their assets when they have an issue in their marriage that needs to be addressed without having to file for a divorce. Social Media: Impacts both Marriages and Divorce Proceedings Over the last several years, there have been many studies that have outlined the negative impact of social media on relationships and marriages. Consistently studies have shown that individuals who frequently accessed social media sites are more likely to experience conflict with their partners. The studies also demonstrate that there is a link between social media use and a decrease in the quality of a marriage. Therefore, a focus on your social media friendships can quickly erode real-life communication and connection with your spouse. The Art of an Uncontested Divorce By Jeff Domen I tell every client that meets with me the same thing - and the result is normally a nervous chuckle. "You can pay to send my kids to college, or you can keep your money and send your own kids to college." And the result is typically the same - people want to save money, people want to avoid unnecessary battles, and people want to do what is best for their children. However, many times people enter into the divorce process with the best of intentions and they walk out of the process the participant of an atomic war... and it can be avoided. The Effects of Divorce on Children of All Ages Individuals of any age can experience emotional issues when their parents end their marriage. Parents interactions with each other and with their children during and after a divorce can profoundly affect their children's ability to cope with life and with relationships, both now and into the future. When it comes to divorce, sons and daughters of any age are "children" of divorce. |
