“A big reason married people accumulate more wealth than others is simple economies of scale - one household is cheaper to maintain than two. Divorce reverses those benefits. Divorce is one of the fastest ways to destroy your wealth” As well, divorce could permanently set your kids back in may ways.

When tying the knot, do it maturely and right the first time. Life is actually really short and it’s nice for grandparents to spend time together with their grandkids.

A friend of mine is going through a nasty divorce. They were 4 years away from paying their house off, but now they will have to sell the house to pay off the lawyers, and he will have to start all over at close to 50.

It was likely nasty because the scum lawyers privately pitted them against each other constantly.

Sad to hear.

Bill Clarke should not be allowed to practice law ever again. Not the first complaint against him

I REALLY hope you're right!!! NO ETHICS with Bill Clarke. Yes, was on the opposition in what was (at least for me) intended to be an equal and fair division of family assets. Clarke turned it into a 2 year battle complete with (his practice) promoting perjury, frustration of court process and all out war - adult children being collateral damage and objects for the "win at all costs" approach he is a master of. Want a "good lawyer", find one who seeks to remove emotions from the 'business' process of the division. Encourages a mindset of working through this tough time of strife to get through to the place of peace and cooperation that once must have existed (at least at the "I Do" part) - drunken Vegas nuptials notwithstanding. That would be a GREAT divorce lawyer, if that is, you actually want to do best by your spouse and children. If NOT, hire a Bill Clarke - you'll sure be a "winner" then, even at the cost of everyone else.

Poor Billy, I guess that dream of being called to the bench looks rather unlikely now. Threatening your Wife (mother of your child), making false police reports, intimidating a witness, obstructing justice and perjury - how shameful for an 'officer of the court'. Typical divorce lawyer - SNAKE IN THE GRASS. Hope he's tossed from the bar and can't practice either. Thinking he'd make a good used car salesman.

All of this is spot on !!! He’s a snake, a lier, didn’t care about kids… I really hope the law society take his licence!! He’s a horrible human being.

The financial and family cost of divorce can be devastating. From diapers to diapers, our human lifespan often isn’t long enough to recover from catastrophic financial damage such as from divorce.

Life is very short. Typically, we spend a third of our life in childhood and education, a third in building a family and finances, and a third preparing for and retirement. Divorce largely resets the clock for building retirement finances, so for most humans there isn’t enough time to re-save for retirement. So best to get it right the first time! Nobody wants to retire in poverty, never mind the guilt of permanent family destruction, and complexity of step-families. Our modern easy-go 50% divorce society has left many seniors struggling financially, and they have their own life choice actions to reflect upon.

Before divorce, think it all out very carefully, weighing all the pros and cons, with all the long term financial and family costs that will never be recovered. Try harder to make what you have work!. (I get that some spouses are chameleons who don’t turn out to be what spouses married, and a split might be best in those cases)

Take time to make a good relationship choice from the start (there is a suitable mate for everyone, and no relationship is perfect), live happily within your financial means, and help each other. Better to have kids after you are in a firm relationship and stable finances, as divorce is a terrible thing to do to kids.
.
A solid first family most often comes out stronger in the long-run, even with bumps along the road, and grandchildren can be enjoyed together. Marriage is a bit like the weather, there will be clear days and stormy days, so caution in making short-sighted life altering decisions.

Unless you are wealthy or young/without kids, divorce could set your finances back so far that you’d likely never recover and may severely compromise your retirement living standard.

Living together the first time and making wise decisions is the most economical in the long run (Sadly, some are simply dealt a bad set of cards and have tough choices)

Exactly ! Right ?!?
Leave if you have to. The kids deserve better than two people in an abussive marriage.
Such a religious point of view, imo. Drove me crazy religious views on MY marriage.
Don’t get Bill Clarke. He’s horrible and will cause constant chaos and turn the whole family to hate each other.
He’s disgusting, IMO, and should have his licence pulled.

What I find interesting is the increase in divorce appraisal requests (I work in a house/land appraisal firm) we get and when we get them. Halfway through 2020, spike. And then there is the usual spike that happens in January (post-Christmas) and September (kids back in school). We went from something like 1 every 2 or three months to 4 a month in a spike period.

We deal with a number of firms - we generally get requests from Pushor Mitchell, Porter Ramsay, FH&P, Courtyard Law, Farris, Smith Peacock, Connect Family Law, Maclean Law, Fletcher King Law Corp, Rush Ihas Hardwick. I may have missed a few :/ Plus single lawyer firms and firms from Vancouver. I couldn't tell you which ones were the best, though.
