challenging
for
heterosexual
couples
but
for
Gay
couples,
the
challenge
can
be
even
greater.�
One
of
the
benefits
of
marriage
is
the
ability
to

But
for

complicated
and
costly.�

Prenuptial Agreements
If

between you

deciding future matters.

Program #16�
High Conflict Divorce
A
high conflict divorce is never a
good thing and is typically
ramped up by the personalities
involved.� During this type
of divorce, a war is created
that is costly and damaging to
the children and the divorcing
couples.
In
this program Dr. Larry
Friedberg explains the
differences between the friendly
divorce, the business-like
divorce and the high conflict
divorce.
You
will gain insight into why
couples go this path and learn
how a partner with a
Narcissistic Personality
Disorder adds fuel to the
fire in a high conflict
situation.
Finally, we have some
suggestions to circumvent this
path that can save you and your
family a lot of grief.

Program #15�
Child Custody Evaluations
The
primary
purpose
and
main
focus
of
the
custody
evaluation
is
to
determine
what
is
in
the
best
interests
of
the
child.�
A
competent
assessment
will
include
a
skilled
clinical
interview
and
history
of
the
family
dynamics.
Generally
one
parent
doesn’t
win
and
the
other
parent
lose
custody.
Rather,
each
parent's
role
with
the
children
may
be
outlined,
and
as a
result,
one
may
get
to
spend
more
time
or
less
time
with
the
children.
Dr.
Larry
Friedberg
is
our
guest
and
he
explains
the
custody
evaluation
process
during
this
program.

Program #14�
Mediation State-to-State So-Cal
vs. MI
In a past program, we explored
how mediation and collaborative
law are helping divorcing
couples maintain control over
their lives as opposed to going
to trial, where a stranger will
make decisions for you.
In this program, we’ll show you
how mediation and collaborative
law can differ from state to
state.� Divorce Source Radio
Legal correspondent, Henry
Gornbein and I had the chance to
speak with Southern California
attorney, Sondra BenNaEim to
discuss the difference between
mediation in Michigan� and
California.
In the program, you’ll learn
more about the process of
mediation and how it can reduce
stress and conflict during your
divorce. We’ll discuss how the
economy is affecting divorce,
and you’ll learn why it is
beneficial for both parties to
consider mediation and
collaborative law over a
traditional trial.

Program #12�
Dividing Property During a
Divorce
�
Part
of a
divorce
is
the
division
of
property.
The
marital
home
used
to
be
one
of a
couple's
major
assets
but
due
to
the
current
economy,
the
equity
in
many
homes
has
been
turned
upside
down
leaving
couples
with
little
or
no
equity
and
in
some
cases,
the
couples
owe
more
than
their
house
is
worth.
In
this
program,
we
discuss
the
difference
between
Real
Property
and
Personal
Property;
we’ll
look
at
residential
and
commercial
real
estate
holdings.
And
if
you
own
a
business,
you’ll
learn
how
businesses
are
valued
and
dealt
with
during
a
divorce.
We’ll
also
discuss
how
Boats,
planes,
cars,
furnishings,
Stock
Assets,
Pensions,
collectibles,
and
Inheritance
come
into
play
when
dividing
property.

Program #10�
How to Have a Civil Divorce
�
When
many of us embark on divorce,
it’s anything but civil.� Anger
can create the "win at any cost"
mentality.� If the attorney
representing you is overly
litigious, you may find yourself
on the expensive path of
hearings and a trial, and in the
end, will you really come out
ahead?� You have to�weigh the
financial and mental cost of
this path against what you
expect to gain.� Relationships
will be torn farther apart,
anger will be raised to a new
high and if you have children,
how will this fallout affect
them?
This program will
discuss:
-
How to size
up your attorney and not let
them inflame your divorce
with�unnecessary anger and
litigation.
-

the peace in a divorce.
