Living Together During Divorce

This week, ABC’s Good Morning America had a feature on couples that are going through the divorce process while still living together. Here is the link to the story: http://abcnews.go.com/video/playerIndex?id=6912479

Be Careful About Living Arrangements during Your Divorce

I find this to be a very difficult choice for my clients. Divorce places you in an adversarial situation with your spouse. You are often fighting over very limited resources. And it’s not uncommon for the couple to have diverse views about the future. If you can work out some ground rules that allow you to continue living together, it is a cost-saving option. Such ground rules should definitely include issues such as sleeping arrangements, parenting time, financial responsibilities, family time, and when/where/how the Divorce Attorney Minnesota will be discussed. You will have to be more adult than your emotions may want you to be.

Think of Your Children

Other cost-saving options include moving in with family or friends, moving in with a room-mate, and renting a smaller apartment than you might otherwise want. If you have children, ensure that you obtain living arrangements that will permit parenting time. Your space doesn’t have to be perfect, but it needs to be safe for your children.

Moore Family Law on Relationship Strategies

The “D” Word

Family attorneys are not in the business of breaking up families. We are about helping people manage family transitions. If there is one piece of Legal Advice I could give to stay married, it would be to never threaten divorce during an argument.

Don’t use the “D” word.

Just don’t.

Uncomfortable Planning – Prenuptial Agreements

Emily Matson here from Moore Family Law. I’d like to talk a bit this week about an important area in family law: Prenuptial Agreements.

Minnesota statute § 519.11 authorizes the use of “antenuptial” agreements (prenuptial in every day language) in order to give parties the chance to disclaim any interest in nonmarital or marital property after they are married.

Family Law and Civil Gideon: The Right to Counsel in Civil Cases

What is a Civil Gideon?

Recently there has been a push by legal communities, including here in Hennepin, Anoka, and Wright counties in Minnesota, to investigate and implement something called a “Civil Gideon” – or a right to counsel in civil cases where important rights are at stake. In 2006, the American Bar Association (link:

http://www.abanet.org/legalservices/sclaid/downloads/06A112A.pdf) passed this resolution:

RESOLVED, That the American Bar Association urges federal, state, and territorial governments to provide legal counsel as a matter of right at public expense to low income persons in those categories of adversarial proceedings where basic human needs are at stake, such as those involving shelter, sustenance, safety, health or child custody as determined by each jurisdiction.
