Here you go. Might require three minutes of actual effort for the 5 minutes of 'free' advice.

Remember: Marriage is the number one cause of divorce

I'm not a divorce lawyer, but I'm a lawyer and I've seen divorce litigation up close.

I suggest that every time you ask your lawyer to seek something from the other side, or oppose something the other side seeks, you pull out a $50 bill and burn it.
For every follow-up call to your lawyer to pursue that matter, do it again to another Federal Reserve Note. Burn those other $50 bills as soon as the law office answers the phone for each call you place.

It will ultimately keep your legal costs down, by showing you how friggin' expensive litigation is. Showing you in a right-now, in-your-face kind of way.

And be sure you get a billable fee schedule up front. This will help you decide how important that question really is.

You know why divorce is so expensive? Because it's worth it!

20+ years ago I spent a small fortune to retain the nastiest, meanest, most sadistic lawyer (by reputation) in the county for my divorce. It was worth every penny to see the infuriated, out of control, screeching banshee lunatic my ex-wife became when she discovered he couldn't be retained by her. LOL! Warms my cold heart just remembering.

If there are minor children involved, at a minimum, quadruple what you expect this divorce to cost in legal expenses.

I told my last DA that I needed him to be a pitbull on bath salts....lol
