i think
00:05
i think the most important advice that i
00:08
can give anybody getting ready to uh
00:10
embark on a divorce is
00:13
to be reasonable and be realistic if you
00:17
have
00:17
pie in the eye expectations you’re going
00:20
to be disappointed
00:21
and the case is going to get contentious
00:23
and expensive
00:25
the law is fairly well defined in
00:27
florida
00:28
the marital assets are going to be
00:30
divided pretty much
00:31
50 50. it’s the rare case where they’re
00:34
not you need to make full disclosure
00:36
so so when everybody is playing off of
00:39
the same set of facts
00:41
resolution becomes possible so my advice
00:44
to everybody
00:45
is be reasonable and number two piece of
00:48
advice
00:49
get a consultation from a top-notch
00:52
lawyer and that means not
00:53
just somebody with experience but
00:55
somebody who has the mindset that you’ve
00:57
got to preserve the family wealth
00:59
and not waste it on futile legal proceedings
