CNN —
“The legal process is adversarial,” Paulette told CNN. “You have a plaintiff, a defendant. You have to spend hundreds of dollars an hour on an attorney. And that seems silly if both people in the relationship want the same thing. Of course, there are cases that require litigation, but the idea that it has to be that way can be even more destructive for families during a difficult time.”

I won the lottery in divorce.
I am the .001%
97% of divorce does not go to trial and of the 3% that do go to trial only 1% of that 3% goes to the appellate court!
Well, that was ME.
I personally endured an 8.5 year fully litigated case that included a 12 day trial that took place over 9 months and after all that living hell…(please excuse my french)
there was a FOUR year state supreme appellate court process.
It cost a TON of money, years of my life tied up in court and it nearly destroyed me and my family.
the funny thing during this time I could barely help myself but time and time again other’s reached out to ME for help..
I called my attorney Marty (gutta remember I was born in Boston)
and told him what happening.
I asked him if I should go to law school…
he smiled and said you know Paulette you think like a judge act like a lawyer and feel like a therapist you owe it to give back and help people you my dear have experienced what 99% of people never will… that experience gives you the depth and the breath of the entire divorce process
