Divorce Empowerment: What You Need to Know, Do, and Say

We were lost before DIVORCE EMPOWERMENT! This guidebook is doing for us what no other divorce book or lawyer has been able to do. (It was enthusiastically recommended to us by a friend in North Carolina after he saw how miraculously it helped his divorcing clients.) Aside from being incredibly comprehensive, superbly organized, clearly written, and continually uplifting, DIVORCE EMPOWERMENT has features not found elsewhere. It has easily walked us through exactly how to adapt the legal facts so they were specific to our state of Illinois --- pure genius! Thanks to Linda Power, an innovative --- yet wise, respectful author. EVERYTHING in ONE BOOK for ALL AMERICANS!

There are no accidents: I met the author of this book when she had just received her first copies from the publisher; I was floundering trying to get accurate information about what to do, when and how to do it. Lawyers, legal referrals, community organizations and friends were trying to "help" by offering advice, much of it well-intended but inaccurate and COSTLY, both in the short- and long-term.Linda Power's book is easy to read, well-organized, well-written, has excellent cross references, and nudges of positivism throughout: it has been both a life and time saver. It helped me to understand the legal terminology with which I was unfamiliar, and to be aware of the pitfalls of the legal system, specifically in relation to women's issues in matters of divorce and family law.I recommend this book to others who are going through the divorce process whether you initiate it or are on the receiving end [KNOW what your attorney and the courts are saying to you, and what you might expect] and to attorneys who would like their clients to be well-informed and prepared. And shouldn't that be all attorneys...?

At last! A clear, organized, informative --- yet enjoyable and inspirational --- guidebook that effectively addresses the wide-ranging needs of my clients and supports them through the entire divorce process.

"DIVORCE EMPOWERMENT: What You Need To Know, Do, And Say" is without a doubt, the most remarkable book on the market! My clients are from four different states and have varying needs. They are all RAVING about this comprehensive, easy-to-use guidebook. DIVORCE EMPOWERMENT addresses all facets of marital breakup. Legal and financial specifics are clearly explained, great empowerment techniques are sprinkled throughout, and realistic strategies are presented. Tough tasks are made easy by using the uniquely designed "Organizers." Hundreds of confusing legal words and terms are simplified. The Glossary (Terms of Divorce) alone is worth the price of the book. This well-organized and thoughtful resource is respectful of individual circumstances and sensitive to real needs, while at the same time remarkably informative and empowering. Divorcing Americans no longer need to feel so overwhelmed --- DIVORCE EMPOWERMENT has finally arrived!

Incredible...for the most devastating time in one's life"Divorce Empowerment" provided detailed explanations and approaches for those of us confronted with what often is a "cloud" of anger, rejection and on some levels depression. Both the financial and legal steps are geared to the average person (like me) who's not conversant in that language. The Customizing Guild section was invaluable to adapting the specific, detailed legal model to the state in which I live. Protecting assets, healing exercises and practical approaches to so many issues have given me the degree of strength to overcome the anxiety and fear and simplify the complicated. My thanks to the author, Linda Powers, for a very, very valuable tool - at a time when I needed these step-by-step soulutions the most.
