There’s a divorce every 42 seconds in the United States, but an Attorney is on a Mission to Make it Better
Couples may have held on for the holidays, but January begins the start of divorce season. A local attorney is on a mission with a new tool to make divorce better and more peaceful. She’s taking January 5, National Divorce Day, to help educate couples on a more peaceful process.
“I want to make divorce better for people. It shouldn’t be this hard,” said Lauren Otto, Partner/Owner at Otto & Steiner, S.C. in Eau Claire. She added, “There’s a way to do it more peacefully. After years of helping people through difficult divorces, I’m on a mission to help families and our communities suffer less with Divorce in a Day mediation. Divorcing couples get the help they need at a much more affordable price.”
Otto estimates the financial impact for couples going through a traditional divorce can easily total $18,000 for legal fees and the impact on kids and future finances goes much further. With more than 746,000 divorces every year in the country, the ripple effect on kids, families, and finances is immense.
“I’m here to help cooperative couples do divorce better, while saving up to 70% of the cost,” Otto advised. “If we can prevent long, drawn out suffering for even one family, it’s worth it. When they can get through this process more quickly, the healing can start more quickly.”
Otto recommends couples ask themselves these top 3 questions to see if they are good candidates for a more peaceful divorce with mediation:
1. Can we cooperate through this process?
2. Are we willing to openly share all of our financial information with each other?
3. Do we want to experience and offer a spirit of fairness throughout the process?
