Take The High Road

According to Tim Hoch, a Divorce Lawyer in Fort Worth, Texas, divorce will make you a better person OR a bitter person. And, you get to choose. For many of us, divorce is a prompt for saying and doing things we later regret. Resist the urge to act in an irrational manner. Forget about throwing flames. Instead, look for constructive ways to reach a settlement. As difficult as it may be, keep your emotions in check during hearings, depositions, mediation,and trial.

Ultimately, the Judge won’t care if your husband didn’t drop off your child at the appropriate hour or your wife had an affair. So save your emotional venting for a private time and place. Don’t be manipulated by your soon to be Ex or by your lawyer. Don’t use your kids as bargaining chips. Get off social media, everything you say and do can and will be used against you. And, remember that happiness is the best revenge.
