Prenuptial Agreements Are on the Rise, And More Women Are Requesting Them
In my law practice, I am a fan of prenuptial agreements. It is interesting to see them on the rise among women. That must indicate that women are becoming more and more financially well off prior to marriage, necessitating a document to protect their assets.
I also believe that prenuptial agreements are important because they help couples have that financial discussion before marrying. So many of the divorcing couples I work with have simple never had the conversation.
Additionally, one needs to consider that all couples have a prenup. It is either one you write yourself or the default prenup written by your state legislature. I prefer to write my own thank you very much.

San Diego Attorney Sandra Morris on Why Collaborative Practice Saves Money
![MP900382637[1]](http://bravewebermack.files.wordpress.com/2013/07/mp9003826371.jpg?w=214)
My friend and colleague, Sandra Morris, is an outstanding family law attorney in San Diego and a member of the Collaborative Family Law Group of San Diego. She recently shared a great article about the cost benefits in choosing Collaborative Practice to do a divorce as opposed to the terrible cost of litigation. It’s a good read.
My favorite quote from the article: “The economic and time savings in the costs of discovery is enormous. You have saved time, and therefore saved money.”

My Fourth Appearance on The Real Estate Radio Hour on ESPN 1700 AM
On April 4, I had another opportunity to go on San Diego ESPN 1700’s Real Estate Radio with my good friend and fellow collaborative divorce practitioner, Justin Reckers, CFP®, CDFA™, AIF®. It was a great opportunity because we had the full hour to ourselves to talk about divorce processes. I have been a long believer that people facing a divorce need to take control early and decide what process they wish to use to complete their divorce. So many people and attorneys just jump straight to litigation, which for most people, is the the very worst way to transition a family. It is more expensive and more destructive.
I was pleased that Justin and I had the chance to tell about mediation and collaborative divorce as excellent options for parties to reduce cost, take control of the outcome and transition their families in as healthy a way as possible.

International Be Kind to Lawyers Day
Apparently it is International Be Kind to Lawyers Day. I simply don’t know what to say. Perhaps I will just sit in my office and wait for kindness to flow my way. (Yeah that’ll happen!) 😉
So go out. Find a lawyer. Give him or her a great big hug. Awwww! (Now go take a shower with liquid hand sanitizer.)
