  2. What You Need to Resolve in a Divorce? • There are two major issues that you would need to negotiate in a divorce when children are involved: • Financial matters, such as child support, division of marital assets, and spousal support • Custody matters, which may include physical and legal custody and visitation for the non-custodial parent

  3. Financial Issues Are Crucial in Your Divorce You may have put off your career to stay home and take care of the children, relying on the other spouse to provide for the family financially. Now that you stand on the precipice of a divorce, you risk losing much of the means of your support.

  4. You May Be Entitled to More of the Marital Assets Than You Think Your contribution to the marriage would be considered as a factor in the equitable distribution of the marital assets. Just because you were not out of the home working does not mean that you did not make an immeasurable contribution to the marriage.

  5. Custody Issues May Have a Profound Effect on You When it comes to custody issues, divorce may change your life. You have grown used to being home with the children at all times. However, your spouse will also have a right to spend time with the children, even if they are not the custodial parent. There may be times when the children will be overnight with the other parent and you will not have them.
