DIVORCE WITH INTEGRITY

HOW TO DEMONSTRATE INTEGRITY IN A DIVORCE

 

When divorce is inevitable, you have the option to divorce with integrity. Getting a divorce sucks, but sometimes it’s the only solution when the relationship hits the end of the road. Emotions tend to run high when it comes to this process.

However, one of the things that I’ve noticed as a Pasadena Mediator, and divorce lawyer, is that spouses demonstrate a much higher level of integrity in their divorce when they proceed amicably and not through the family court system. Amicable spouses are far more transparent and cooperative. 

Unlike in court, spouses’ lawyers share less information and frequently spin the truth. When spouses see their lawyers holding back information in court, the spouses are encouraged to do the same with each other. This behavior drives up the cost of a divorce, tears apart the spouses’ trust in each other (which harms co-parenting efforts down the line), and takes much longer to reach the end of the divorce.

A litigated, scorch-earthed divorce only benefits the lawyers and leaves the spouses financially and emotionally in pure ruin. Avoid it!

Here's What Our Clients Say About Their Experience With Us!

"The old saying goes: "I don't know where I'd be without 'such-and-such.'" Well, I can honestly say that without Leslie, Jimmy, and the incredible team at Amicable Divorce Services (ADS), I WOULD know where I'd be without them. I would be without everything that I've worked hard for; my house, all my assets, forking over money to pay all the bills, etc." Read more on Yelp.

As with many people, I am no fan of attorneys in general.
Leslie Howell is the exception to that.
During a high stress situation, she was extremely knowledgeable, answering every question and was very helpful.  She is very professional.  Nobody really wins with divorces, but Leslie made the process smooth and fair which I appreciated.  Thank you so much."

"Leslie provides a great service she is professional and takes time to explain everything very thoroughly. She guided us through all of our options and was honest about fees for each avenue. I have no doubt she has her clients best interest at heart. The process for what it is, was straight forward. She made what's not easy as easy as it probably could be. I would recommend her mediation services to anyone looking for a simple less expensive option to court procedures."
