The divorce rate has been spiraling out of control for years now. By all accounts in North America it is close to or a little over 50%. That is catastrophic on many levels.

Not only does divorce affect the two people divorcing, it affects children, family members, extended family, friends, neighbors and believe it or not it affects society as a whole.

For many people divorce is a legitimate and appropriate choice. And even though that is true, the divorce process often leaves people feeling lonely, flawed, enraged, undesirable, helpless, empty and emotionally raw and overwhelmed.

It doesn’t have to be that way, and understanding the process can help you end your marriage and not go limping away needing years to heal and repair.

My guest for this episode is Henry Gornbein, a family law attorney and the author of Divorce Demystified.
