• Don’t represent yourself. Even experienced attorneys that are getting divorced use an attorney.
• Don’t get greedy. It doesn’t matter if it was you or your spouse that initially wanted the divorce. Just because you’re hurt and your emotions are running high, does not mean that you are entitled to more than the law allows. This attitude will cost you unnecessary attorney fees.
• Don’t let your friends tell you what to do. Though they may have good intentions listen to your attorney. They know the law.
• Don’t pay your support late.
• Don’t pick up your children for visitation if have been drinking or have taken drugs.
• Don’t spend thousands of dollars in attorney fees fighting over a $150 piece of furniture
