Divorce Financing For Quick And Easy Separations

By Elizabeth Davis


When you walked down the aisle you were living a dream that you never thought would end. You thought that divorce attorneys were for other people and that your marriage was perfect. But, a large proportion of marriage end, some very soon after the ceremony. But deciding to end a marriage is expensive. There will be assets to divide up and custody battles. Thankfully there are divorce financing options available that will help with the overall cost.

Getting a divorce is expensive, whichever you look at it. How much yours will cost will depend on a lot of variables. Your marriage annulment may cost a few hundred dollars or many thousands. But, what's for sure is that you will need the services of an attorney. The average cost for divorcing your spouse in the U. S is a mouth watering fifteen thousand pounds.

But what makes the process so expensive. Asides the fees you will pay the attorney you'll have to pay for court costs, mediators, time off work, a financial planner, and accountants fees. The list really is endless, and the more joint assets you and your spouse have, the more expensive things will be.

So, let's breakdown the cost of a typical legal separation. Finance is available in the same way you can take out a standard loan for other purposes, such as buying a vehicle. Unfortunately there is nothing fun about borrowing money to split up from your lifetime partner.

If you are determined to keep the costs down then you will need to agree on everything including custody. This may seem possible if you are still able to talk to your spouse without things erupting. But the truth is that even small differences can end in big arguments, and using a mediator in the first instance makes sense.

It is most likely that you won't agree on everything and that you will need to hire an attorney for custody or asset issues. Out of court settlements are a lot cheaper, but they are not very common at all. When you cannot agree on finances and custody you will need accountants, a professional to value your home, and many more services. Each extra service you require will add money to the final cost of your divorce.

Divorcing your partner will not just cost money. You will also lose money. If your home has to be sold, a quick sale is the best way forward. But this will not fetch the best price for your property and you may sell at a loss, losing all the equity. You need somewhere to live too, and this means buying a new smaller home or renting. This should be a priority if you have kids as their stability is very important.

On separation, child care costs go up as well. It is no longer possible to have an agreement where one person works while the other looks after the kids. Divorce is challenging, and taking out a loan can relieve a lot of the stress involved. If you have a good financial history you should have no problem being accepted for a loan. So, applying for financing for your separation today. As we said, there is no point in putting off the inevitable.
