Dating While Divorcing
Posted By Evans Hubbard LawA common question when a client first comes in to see me is whether they can start dating. It’s a good question. In times past, when you needed to find a fault in order to divorce, a person who committed that fault could have legal consequences including those of support, property and rights to access to children. However, there are few states which still allow fault, and all states have provision ...Continue Reading -
Talking to the Enemy, Communication with the Other Party
Posted By Evans & Hubbard Attorneys at LawContinue Reading
In any other kind of legal action – criminal or civil or divorce – your attorney is going to tell you not to have any communication with the opposing party, represented or not. There is too much risk that you, as a party, will say the wrong thing, make admissions that will be damaging to your case, or create new conflict, making an already difficult situation worse. But what if the opposing party ...

Reasons Why You Should be Grateful to Your Ex
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawDivorce is almost always considered as one of the top five stressors in life, often times higher than death of a family member, and with good reason.

Reducing Stress
Posted By Rose L. HubbardStress has a negative effect on your health, and your ability to navigate your day to day life. Stress activates fight or flight responses which dumps stress hormones into your body, which can override the brain’s pre-frontal cortex, the part of the brain which makes rational choices. If you are reacting badly to stress, the stress tends to escalate, especially when you are going through a ...Continue Reading -

BEING A FRIEND WHEN YOUR FRIEND IS DIVORCING
Posted By Rose L. HubbardTelling people that you are going through a divorce can be like telling people you have cancer. Some people will run as fast as they can the other direction, because they don’t want to get involved. Some people want to “take your side” and let you know they never did like your spouse anyway. Some people want to show support by telling their own stories that just add burden to the person who needs ...Continue Reading -

Anger In the Midst of Divorce
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawIt is an often repeated phrase that everybody goes temporarily insane when they get divorce. Calm rational people who in normal circumstances function in a reasonably competent matter suddenly have daily flashes of anger. Things that most people would be able to just let go become the “I have to assert my boundaries” and refuse to budge on picking up the kids at 5:45 pm rather than 6 pm. So what ...Continue Reading -
When Your Final Divorce Judgment Doesn't Finalize Your Mortgage Obligations
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawIt’s been months since you and your spouse moved into separate residences. Even more months have gone by while you went through the divorce process.

Or did all of the details get covered? Your existing mortgage company is not necessarily ...Continue Reading -
Is Divorce the Right Option For You?
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawOf the major life stressors, including death of a child, death of a spouse, loss of employment, divorce and major medical conditions, divorce usually ranks second or third. I have had many people tell me that they think divorce, particularly divorce when there are minor children, is more stressful than death of a family member. After all, death has finality, and with divorce, you have to keep ...Continue Reading -
SUPERVISED PARENTING TIME - Who needs that?
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawSometimes we all need a little help, and in a divorce context, sometimes that little bit of help means that someone is supervising the parenting time with your child and the other parent or maybe the only way you are able to see your child is if someone is supervising.

MOVING AWAY MOVING ON WITH CHILDREN
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawYour divorce is finally over. You and your ex-spouse have a parenting plan that allows your children to have significant time with both parents, and your children have adjusted well to the schedule. You are the primary parent, but the other parent has every other weekend, one overnight in the midweek, and half of the weeks in the summer. Life is good. You move on with your life as a single parent. ...Continue Reading -
INTERNATIONAL CUSTODY DISPUTES
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawCustody disputes, when they are in a single case, in a single jurisdiction, are complicated. At the end of a dispute, there is a judgment, which defines what parenting time will be for each parent, and who has decision making authority, which is the essence of what having “custody” means. Having decision making authority does not mean that authority is absolute. It does not mean that you have the ...Continue Reading -
PART III - GASLIGHTING IN A DIVORCE
Posted By Evans & Hubbard, Attorneys at LawIn a divorce, the shifting psychological dynamics come up in many ways. The most obvious is when child custody is strongly contested between the two parents. If there is an abusive relationship to begin with, or a relationship where there is not a balance of emotional power between the parties, then causing self-doubt in a person who already has self-doubt has obvious gains for the person making ...Continue Reading
