What can I do myself?

Vanessa Lloyd Platt (Divorce Lawyer) gives expert video advice on: Do I need a divorce lawyer?; How do I find a divorce lawyer? and more...

What you can do yourself to minimise costs when going through a divorce is to write out a history of your relationship and a schedule of your assets when you go to see your divorce lawyer. That will cut down the time you spend with them. The more you phone your lawyer or go to visit them, the more your costs will be, so try and cut that down if possible. If you need emotional help, go to see a counsellor. Don't use your divorce lawyer for emotional support in that way.
