What is divorce? It is the legal act performed by married couples to end their marriage. Divorce is the ultimate step that couples take in marriages that have problems. It is not very favorable, but, in situations where it cannot be avoided; it should be handled with utmost care. Divorces are sensitive issues and leave lifelong scars. The main purpose of a divorce is end the marriage altogether. It can become a messy and long drawn process if it is not handled properly.

In the U.S., each state has its own set of laws regarding divorce. Therefore, Oregon too has its own set of laws.

So how does one go about a divorce? It is not a cheap process and requires a strong mind. If children are involved, the situation gets more complicated. The first thing to be done, when filing for divorce, is to get a good lawyer. It is most important that the client is honest with the lawyer, as the more the lawyer knows about the case the better his appeal will be.

Good divorce lawyers are ones that can handle the case in such a manner that the damage to the people involved is minimal.

Some points are to be kept in mind while appointing a divorce lawyer:

1. It is recommended that a person should consult at least three lawyers before finally choosing one.

2. A good and experienced divorce lawyer should be able to answer any query the client may have regarding divorce proceedings.

3 .He should have a good idea of the local laws of divorce.

4. He should be up to date with the recent changes in the law.

5. The fees of the lawyer are another important factor to be kept in mind. Generally the more complicated the case, the higher the fee is.

6. He should not forget that the way in which he handles the case affects the emotions of the people involved.

The other areas that have to be taken care of while filing for a divorce are the custody of the children and the terms of child support. This is one of the most difficult parts, trying to decide what is best for the child. A good lawyer will be able to suggest a path that is beneficial to both parties.

Creating a budget can be a very difficult task. Although we as consumers know that we need to pay our bills, buy our necessities, and put some money away for savings, we don’t really know how to start.

I know from personal experience how hard creating a budget can be. In the beginning stages of my road to financial freedom, I would write all my expenses down on paper and notice that I would have very little or sometimes nothing left over to save. I tell my clients that seeing everything on paper is only the first of many reality checks while starting the journey of getting their finances in order.

I think most Advisors in the financial world will agree that using budgeting categories will help you organized things tremendously. Everyone will not have the same categories thus making every budget unique.

A category simply is nothing more than a grouping mechanism. Instead of listing each credit card bill separately on my budget, I will give all of my credit cards a category, for example I will list it once as “debt”. Some other popular budgeting categories are housing, savings, utilities, charity, food, transportation, childcare, miscellaneous and income to name a few.

There are many budgeting software programs out there. I suggest however, that in the beginning stages of creating a budget you continue to track things manually. This way you’re constantly viewing how your money is being spent and staying connected to the whole budgeting process.

Another very important task of a successful budget is keeping up with your expenses and all of your receipts. Now, I know this is difficult especially when buying what we think are small insignificant items but believe me it is very important, especially for married couples. If one spouse is spending $4.00 a day per month on a Cappuccino, that one purchase is costing your household $120.00 a month. To help solve this difficult task, keep a “receipt” box in a common area and commit to tossing all of them daily. When you sit down to work on your budget pull out all of your receipts and categorize them. I suggest you do this weekly in the beginning. The box can fill up pretty quickly, especially when two people are contributing.

Last but not least give each category total a “category to income” percentage. For example look at your life though the eyes of a Lender. You should spend no more than 31% of your net income on rent or housing and that includes your mortgage payment, property taxes, insurance and in some cases homeowner association fees. If you’re spending more than 31% keep your true values. Once you tally-up all your actual category totals and convert them into percentages your “reality” picture is now painted. Hopefully you will not exceed 100%. However, if you’re over 100% seek professional help immediately because you are in big trouble and heading for a crash!

If the above process has you feeling overwhelmed don’t beat yourself up. Just make an appointment with a Counselor or Coach in your area they’ll be happy to assist you.
