💡If you're divorcing or considering one, your paralegal might be the most underused resource on your case. As Gailor Hunt paralegal Liz Morgan shared on the podcast: "A lot of questions you may have regarding your case updates, scheduling, or document logistics can go through me instead of the attorney, and my rate is much lower."

There are things your attorney's paralegal wishes you knew, and most clients never think to ask.

➡️ Here's one that surprises a lot of people: sending your legal team five separate emails throughout the week instead of a single organized message with all your questions. That alone is costing you money.

Paralegal Liz Morgan, who has more than 30 years of experience in family law, shares what she sees driving up divorce costs from the inside, as well as the simple shifts that can make a real difference.

A long marriage isn't automatically a successful one. Therapist and author Oona Metz and I talk about the sunk cost fallacy: the feeling that because you've put in 20 years, leaving would mean it was all a waste. Some marriages work well for a long time, and then they stop working. That's not failure ... it's just a different chapter.

Weight loss medication is reshaping more than waistlines...it's reshaping marriages. I haven't handled a labeled "Ozempic divorce" case yet, though I suspect some clients haven't connected those dots themselves.

What's striking is that the relationship strain often isn't a side effect people are warned about. It can catch both partners completely off guard. This Psychology Today piece breaks down the biopsychosocial mechanisms at play and, importantly, what couples and clinicians can do about it. Worth a read if you're working with clients navigating health transitions or considering GLP-1 medication yourself: https://buff.ly/iIb62Ej

When communicating with your ex (or soon-to-be ex), keep the BIFF method — Brief, Informational, Friendly, and Firm — in mind. It can be incredibly helpful to avoid heated interactions and communicate more effectively. I often remind my clients of this helpful technique developed by Bill Eddy of the High Conflict Institute.

What does mental health have to do with divorce? More than you might think.

Divorce is one of the most challenging experiences a person can go through. If you're struggling, that's completely understandable. I hope you'll give yourself permission to get the support you need. 💙

Your divorce should be about what you're running toward, not just what you're running from. What is the life that you want on the other side of divorce? Use that as a guiding principle throughout the divorce process to stay focused on what matters most.

If, at the end of your mediation or trial, you feel you've won, that doesn't bode well for your future relationship with your ex-spouse. When children are involved, you will likely be at the same soccer games, birthday parties, graduations, and other events. Hannah Hembree Bell and I agree that if both parties feel that they end in a pretty fair situation or are slightly unhappy, 👉 then it's probably the right result. When one party feels it's a slam dunk in their favor, it's harder for the other person to recover.
