By A Customer

Terrific straight-forward, no-nonsense book to guide you through the whole divorce process. Great chapter on what steps to take *before* you file for divorce! Without a doubt, the best book of its kind on the market today.

5.0 out of 5 stars An exceptional, highly perceptive how-to book, November 20, 1998

By A Customer

This how-to book is at once practical and empathetic. It guides the reader through what may be the most turbulent period his or her adult life with sensitivity, insight and sound advice. I was impressed as much by its down-to-earth, practical style as by its author's compassionate perspective on the divorce process. I would recommend it to anyone who has recently made the wrenching decision to end a marriage.

5.0 out of 5 stars Practical and Easy to Follow, November 8, 1999

By A Customer

This book is now dog-eared from use. It was like a map into unknown territory. Easy to ready and right to the point.
