Don’t panic in your separation or divorce!

Often in life we are hit suddenly by difficulties, tragedy, financial problems or sickness, especially in dealing with a separation or divorce.

Sometimes it the long-term challenges that strike a blow. What do we do?

One thing we don’t want to do is to be overcome by panic.

In fact, a key factor you need to know is that you are always in control of your response. Philippians 4: 6-7 tells us: “Do not be anxious about anything, but in every situation, by prayer and petition, with thanksgiving, present your requests to God. And the peace of God, which transcends all understanding, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.”

In the moment when you experience panic and fear in your separation or divorce, ask God to fill you with his peace. It is a supernatural peace and calm that only he can give.

There are pivotal turning points in our lives when we must choose to trust God instead of allowing ourselves to be overtaken by panic and fear. Trusting God is not a feeling but a choice we make. We may feel afraid or feel panic, but we can choose peace. We can choose to trust God and tap into his peace that will guard our hearts and minds.

Imagine you had three volume controls on your body. When a tragedy or setback with or in your separation or divorce happens, you would turn down the volume on your negative thoughts. You would turn down the volume on your emotions.

But you would turn up the volume on your spirit. Don’t allow negative thoughts and your emotions to drown out God’s voice. Allow the word of God to come up out of you and talk to you and encourage you.

Let the Holy Spirit comfort you and lead you. Allow God’s voice to be the dominant voice in your life.

Choose peace over panic and fear in your separation or divorce and prayer instead of worry.

Come to think of it, you’ll increase your peace and calmness even more in your separation or divorce by working with GTA family law pro. Thomas O’Malley.

You’re an intelligent separated spouse. There’s no doubt about that!

As you know, your separation or divorce is changing your whole life. You and your kids are affected by the legal ups and downs of your family law case.

So you certainly know what to do: You can protect your family law rights with a top-notch, information-packed consultation with Thomas O’Malley, or you can stay stuck in the Ontario family law swamp. The choice is yours!

Simply call the office of Thomas O’Malley now at 905-434-8837 to set up a consultation with a wealth of family law advice and wisdom before it’s too late.

5 separation or divorce expectations that won’t serve you!

Now, the real truth about why certain expectations about your separation or divorce are dangerous to your health and your bank account:

1. Your separation or divorce will be fair

I’m not saying that you should expect to get completely run over in your separation or divorce. But neither should you expect that your family law situation will be completely fair either. Why not?
What’s fair is always subjective. What you think is “fair” will be very different from what your x-spouse thinks is “fair.”

Meanwhile, what the judge and the lawyers think is “fair” could easily be something different.

The bottom line is that “fair”, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. As a result of that, don’t be surprised if you end up feeling like your settlement is in some ways unfair.

2. You and your spouse will both feel the same way about your separation or divorce

It’s rare that two spouses mutually agree they want a divorce at the same time.

Spouses usually have different timelines about their separation.

Dealing with your spouse’s timeline will be frustrating. But once you understand that’s something you want to do, you will be better able to manage your frustration.

3. You can get through your separation or divorce perfection well without a therapist

Contrary to what most people think, separation or divorce is at least 80% emotional. If you want to get through it in the most healthy was possible, you NEED a therapist.

One thing makes divorces ugly: emotions. Your emotions and your spouse’s emotions drive your divorce.

If you want to really improve your chances for keeping separation or divorce amicable, you should seriously consider getting a therapist on board to help you.

4. If your spouse is unreasonable, you can settle your case without fighting in court

If you are married to or were in a relationship with a high conflict spouse, don’t kid yourself. You’re not going to have a friendly divorce.

You often to go to court in fact to settle your case when you cannot settle your case outside of court.

You can often settle your case in family court based on the judge’s recommendations on what the separated spouses need to do reach an agreement.

5. You don’t need a family lawyer

Unless you’re very young, have a very short marriage or relationship, no money, no property, and no kids, you NEED to hire a top notch GTA family law pro. to deal with the legal issues in your separation or divorce.

If you don’t hire an experienced family lawyer, you can easily sink in the Ontario family law swamp with no rescue help even close to you.

There you have it, my friend. Don’t follow these expectations or beliefs at all. Or you’ll face some really serious problems in your separation or divorce if you don’t already.

Onwards…

Don’t be taken in by light or wrong advice on how to handle the issues in your separation or divorce. It doesn’t work that way.

What you need is a solid family law plan and strategy to protect your money, assets, kids and family law rights before it’s too late.

These principles have withstood the test of time and yet have been updated as required-and found effective-for separated spouses in Ontario.

STOP and picture what your life will be like working with a savvy local family lawyer in southern Ontario to safeguard your legal rights and get a fair and reasonable separation agreement or settlement.

No separated spouse has ever won in their separation or divorce without working with top-notch GTA family lawyer Thomas O’Malley.

Use O’Malley Family Law for your separation or divorce legal problems. No other professional takes the mystery out of protecting your money, assets and family law rights. No other person unlocks the secrets of getting a fair and reasonable separation agreement or settlement. You can count on it.

Just call Thomas O’Malley at 905-434-8837 to set up your invaluable consultation to get the ball rolling.

The client's foolish x-spouse we can all learn from

I often have to deal with this type of a client’s x-spouse: THEY DON’T UNDERSTAND ANYTHING.

What a mess it is for everyone! No one benefits, that’s for sure.

What am I talking about?

The client’s x-spouse does not respond to anything I send them…they don’t respond to emails, letters or phone calls.

This x doesn’t hire a lawyer. That makes the situation so much worse since they don’t understand their family rights.

They simply sit around and do nothing since they don’t have a clue about what to do in their separation or divorce.

The x does not provide full financial disclosure to me. This is critical to settle any family law case!

The x does not respond to my client’s proposed Separation Agreement or Offer to Settle.

They just sit on their hands and do nothing.

This is a terrible situation for my clients. Nothing is moving at all for them.

They’re sweating bullets on what to do. They want to move their separation or divorce forward so that they can move on with their life. I don’t blame them at all for feeling that way.

They keep emailing or phoning me asking whether I’ve heard anything from their x.

My clients tell me regularly that they are on pins and needles whether anything is going to move forward when their x-spouse just won’t do anything.

I totally get it. That’s for sure.

Now just imagine your x-spouse taking action to settle the legal issues in your separation or divorce.

What should my clients do or arrange to do to have this log jam broken so that things get moving in their separation or divorce?

A number of important things!

First, it’s my job to encourage their x to get an experienced family law lawyer. I do that all the time.

My clients do much better when their x-spouse gets a lawyer since their x will no longer procrastinate. Their x will finally understand their family law rights.

This helps my clients big time since it’s much easier to get a settlement when their x knows and understands their family law rights.

I make sure that I encourage this type of x to get an experienced family law lawyer in all my emails and letters to them.

I will still often send a proposed Separation Agreement or Offer to Settle to my client’s x even if they don’t have a lawyer to see if we can get something going with the goal of settling the important issues in my client’s case.

If the x-spouse, simply will not respond to anything or do anything, then my client will have to seriously consider taking their x to court.

Luckily, going to court is not as a big a deal as clients think.

In short, there are a number of important steps I take to make sure my clients get the best situations to protect their family law rights and settle their case…encouraging their x to get an experienced family law lawyer is certainly one of them.

Of course, there are many more that I do for my clients as well.

That’s it for now.

Here’s the bottom line: call my office at 905-434-8837 now to make sure you’re doing the right thing to protect your family law rights and settle your case much sooner, rather than later.

The next few people who contact me will most likely have to be put on the waiting list.

So you’d better call right now to get a spot for later this week or early next week.

You’ll be glad you did.

Thomas O’Malley

“How on earth can I deal with my x-spouse throwing their separation at me!”

The results are“I don’t even have a sense who I am any longer in. Believe it or not, you often easily face serious emotional issues and times in a separation or divorce.

No surprise if you think about it.

If your spouse started the separation or divorce process, you are most likely dealing with the terrible issue of emotional catch-up. You’re attempting to sort through all of your feelings that your x-spouse who started the process already sorted through.

You often lose your own identity with the separation or divorce since you so closely identified with your relationship with your x-spouse.

You have too much pride to love your x-spouse who unfortunately has already given up on you. That’s a terrible situation to say the least.

You are completely lost facing your separation or divorce. You don’t know who you really are and what you should be doing now as you face your disaster of a separation.

Your life has turned upside down and you have no idea what to do.

You feel more vulnerable than you’ve ever faced in your life.

You’re totally defeated and have no idea what to do next.

What a disturbing and frightening situation!

I can totally see the mess you’re in. It’s completely understandable. Most separated spouses face the same desperate circumstances.

In fact, becoming someone new during your separation or divorce can be a scary situation indeed!

You want to continue to be yourself and who you have always been, but if you lost your identity itself in the divorcing relationship, it can require a moment to reflect and reevaluate who you are as a person.

Here’s a really important point: With how defeated and lost you can feel during and after your divorce, it is important to remember that you are not defined by your failures, and as dysfunctional or unhappy as your previous marriage or relationship may have been, that is not who you are.

You are not your previous relationship!

You must lean on your support network or find one if you don’t have one: Understand that you’re not alone in this journey in figuring out your identity and how to handle your separation or divorce.

Seeking support from trusted individuals or groups can be a source of strength and optimism. Reaching out might require vulnerability, but the benefits of having a robust support system far outweigh the initial discomfort.

Professional avenues like therapists or support hotlines can offer invaluable guidance. An excellent personal counsellor or therapists can give you the tools to find out who you really are and how to handle the difficult emotions as a result of the breakdown of your marriage or relationship and dealing with the serious impact of your separation or divorce.

One thing is for sure: You need the help of an experienced GTA family law pro. to take over the heavy of the family law issues in your situation.

Experience shows time and time again that Thomas O’Malley quickly and easily helps clients protect their family law rights and get a fair and reasonable separation agreement or settlement.

I wish you could see yourself going to a top-notch family law consultation because it has all the information you need to safeguard your money, assets, kids and family law rights in your separation or divorce before it’s too late.

How will you start enjoying your life again when you can protect your family law rights and end your separation or divorce issues once and for all?

The three minutes it takes to read this message could change your separation or divorce!

Every week I encourage my clients to ask themselves important separation and divorce questions to prevent even more family law problems from happening in their life.

I try to always step ahead of the problems rather than having to deal with them when they have already surfaced.

Makes sense, right?

You can start with questions like the following:

How difficult is your financial situation right now?

Has your x-spouse provided all their critical information and documents about their money, assets, investments and properties to you or my office?

How is your relationship with your kids?

What’s happening with your career or business right now?

Have you given careful thought about what you want to do with your home?

Is your x-spouse generally reasonable or difficult to deal with?

Is your x-spouse fairly okay to deal with in terms of negotiating a fair reasonable separation agreement or settlement?

What are your x-spouse’s main fears and beliefs in dealing with the separation or divorce?

What are your main fears and beliefs as you handle this difficult time in your life?

What matters most is that you give a lot of thought to these questions so that you make the most out of dealing with your separation or divorce.

By working closely with an established family law pro., you can discuss the important answers to these questions so that you start moving in the right direction in your separation or divorce.

Here's a fact for you: You’ll only get ahead on protecting your money, assets and family law rights in your separation or divorce by working with a talented GTA family law pro.

The case against collaborative family law!

Now, the real truth about collaborative family law.

It’s a total waste of time most of the time!

What is collaborative family law in the first place?

Collaborative family law is an alternative dispute resolution process (ADR), also called family dispute resolution process, where you and your x-spouse work together to resolve your legal issues out of court with the help of your own collaborative family lawyers. It is sometimes called collaborative practice.

This is the BIG TIME problem with collaborative family law:

Collaborative family lawyers agree in writing not to go to court.

In other words, separated spouses try to negotiate a separation agreement or settle with their own lawyers in collaborative family law.

However, if they don’t reach an agreement, which is always possible depending on the facts of the case, then each separated spouse must hire a different family lawyer to take the matter to court if necessary.

That’s such a waste of money since a separated spouse must now hire a new lawyer to handle the difficult issues in their separation or divorce.

And here’s one thing that many separated spouses and others forget: top-notch family lawyers often negotiate a separation agreement or settlement for their clients but they are more than prepared to take their client’s legal issues to court if required.

That’s the best situation and protection for separated spouses by far!

However, collaborative family law stops solid family lawyers dead in their tracks from going to court if required since they actually agree not to go to court if they are doing collaborative family law work for their clients.

Here’s a fact for separated spouses: Collaborative family law simply won’t work when you know you are dealing with a difficult, unfair or unreasonable x-spouse in trying to negotiate a separation agreement or settlement.

Are you beginning to see how you have to take a different approach to your family law problems and issues.

Okay, enough of this nonsense.

Let’s get down to brass tacks.

The key to breaking out of your family law mess or difficulty is to work with a top-notch GTA family law pro. who works diligently to protect your money, assets, investments, kids and your family law rights before it’s too late.

In fact, every time you read these emails, you will get the feeling of wanting to safeguard your family law rights by consulting with a savvy GTA family law pro. because you realize how much easier it will make your separation or divorce.

Imagine, for a moment, it’s a month from today and finally have your family law problems solved with a fair and reasonable separation agreement or settlement.

Looks pretty good, doesn’t it?

I wish you call O’Malley Family Law now for a consultation because it has all the information you need to start protecting your money, assets, kids and your family law rights and start enjoying your life again!

Experience shows time and time again that separated spouses who go to a consultation with O’Malley Family Law realize a quick and easy increase in excellent results in dealing with their separation or divorce.

The Wolverine’s separation and divorce secrets

So I saw the Wolverine movie again a few nights ago.

I’ve been a Wolverine movie fan for a few years now.

You see, the coolest thing about Wolverine isn’t just his claws.

Or his bloodhound like sense of smell.

Or his indestructible metal skeleton.

All that’s cool but, IMHO, his healing factor is the real deal when it comes to Wolverine. This means cuts, poisons, toxins, have no effect on him. As soon as he’s shot or run over by a car or whatever…he heals extremely fast. And he basically doesn’t age.

Add that to his unbreakable skeleton and he almost can’t be killed.

And guess what?

If you to not only want to survive but win in your separation or divorce regardless of the effects of the unreasonable actions and attitude of your x-spouse and the terrible situation you face in your family law case…then simply give your separation or divorce it own “healing factor.”

And the way you to do that is by…making sure you have your own confidence and self-esteem.

In fact, you can make yourself impervious to attack from your x-spouse like Wolverine with your inner confidence knowing you’re doing the right things to deal with your separation or divorce successfully.

First, get solid personal counselling to deal with the difficult emotional side of your separation or divorce. An excellent personal counsellor or therapist will give you the useful tools required to handle your negative emotions and beliefs in handling your emotional baggage in your difficult life situation right now.

Rely on your faith in God. That can make the difference between night and day in your ability to deal with your separation or divorce successfully. Start going to a local church that really makes a difference in your life. You won’t regret it. I guarantee that.

Next negotiate a fair and reasonable separation agreement or settlement with your x-spouse that protects your family law rights at the same time.

Finally hire a savvy GTA family law pro. to take the heavy burden of the legal stuff off your shoulders and get that separation agreement or settlement completed for you.

Here’s a fact for you: You can easily and quickly get moving on working with a recognized GTA family law pro. by setting up a consultation with O’Malley Family Law.

Separated spouses have proven time and time again that O’Malley Family Law dramatically increases the success of protecting your money, assets and family law rights in your separation or divorce.

A successful separated spouse can easily use a top-notch consultation and start protecting their family law much sooner than they realize.

If Thomas O’Malley could show you how to start enjoying your life again with a great settlement in your separation or divorce, what would it be like?

Put it this way, from now on you have your life under control again with a solid separation agreement or settlement so that you can easily and quickly move on with your life.

Remember who you are and…
..act accordingly.

The subject line?

I had simply forgotten for a moment.

I’d gotten myself into a bit of loop where I was not taking action on a couple of things (business wise) as there were a too many options/routes & I was left with a degree of ‘decision fatigue’.

Personally?

I’d let some previous issues cloud my thinking; some challenging times from earlier this year I never dealt with and didn’t process them.

It took me WEEKS to see clearly not only where I was but what I needed to do.

Quite frankly, I remembered who I am and NOW?

I am acting accordingly now.

Listen, your separation, divorce and life are going to deal you various hands; peaks and troughs, highs and lows.

- is what it is -

All YOU can control?

Is how you act AND what actions you take after you have made a decision, and let me tell you something, it’s better to DO rather than just sit and wait and hope it will figure itself out.

Especially on how to handle the details and problems of your separation or divorce.

It often won’t.

You don’t need anyone’s permission to do what you want - or need - to do.

(No ones going to give it to you anyways)

So remember that:

- You are not your mistakes
- You are not your trauma
- You are not you pain
- You are not your body or your bank balance

You are a capable, sovereign, strong human being who has a) likely achieved things already, b) survived all of your difficult days and c) will continue to survive and achieve more things IF YOU KEEP GOING AND TAKE ACTION.

Your life is ticking away one day at a time, and one day there just won’t be enough time to do the things you need or want to do.

One day it can be.

You just have to remember who you are and act accordingly.

One more thing: simply take control of your life in your separation or divorce by clicking here now:
