No-Load Divorce By Bill Kumm and Steve Case I was asked to help ghostwrite a difficult book for Bill and Steve, two financial planners in the Detroit area. Divorce is tough, very tough. Yet, you have choices. You can be overloaded with bitterness, large legal fees, and that gnawing feeling that you have no control over the process. Or you can decide to control your divorce and lighten your loads—especially your financial and emotional burdens—by following the 10 Steps of a No-Load Divorce. No-Load Divorce: How to Save Money, Time, and Self-Respect As You End Your Marriage guides you through every phase of a divorce. The book leads you through bewildering beginnings (Is my marriage really over?) to finding professional help with thorny custody and asset-splitting issues. No-Load Divorce comforts and helps you through this time of turmoil, tears, and then revival. It is a how-to book of healing and hope. The book brims with worksheets, practical ideas on managing money and emotions during and after your divorce, as well as inspiring stories from folks who have been there. Folks like divorced couples, lawyers, financial planners, mediators, counselors, clergy, and children of divorced families. No-Load Divorce examines: Ways to save your marriage The financial consequences of divorce Ways to avoid custody battles and the pitfalls of child support and alimony Ground rules that apply to any settlement Using the art of negotiation when dividing assets What children really want Win-win co-parenting Envisioning a new life You had hoped you would never have to read a divorce book. But as your marriage comes to an end and your financial and emotional lives are jumbled, you will find No-Load Divorce to be essential reading.   Gary Legwold glegwold@lutefisk.com (612) 926-1877 "Ideas Need Words" Back Home Page © Copyright 2004 Gary Legwold and Conrad Henry Press.
