Divorce for Dummies - helpful

I got this book for a college course on divorce and find it to be an easy and interesting read that clearly and concisely explains information that might otherwise be cloudy and confusing to anyone without a law degree. It also gives good advice to anyone who is contemplating or is in the early stages of getting a divorce.

Gave as a Christmas gift. Reader used it liked it.

I gave this as a gift to a friend who badly needed to get divorced. Heard about it first from a bus buddy who told me it helped him. Now, I feel you should try your best to work out your problems first but sometimes it is impossible. This book helped my friend a lot and I am certain it will help you too.

Divorce for Dummies

I found this book very interesting. I am not divorced nor married, but the book provides a wealth of information to know before entering into marriage. Protecting oneself is key and I feel Divorce for Dummies opened my eyes to what I did not realize.

thorough, reliable

Divorce for Dummies is a thorough overview of the divorce process and ways to make it easier and less expensive. I know the authors from interviewing them for my Internet radio show, [...] and other articles, and I know they are very careful in the resources and information they present. I also believe they really do have the consumer's best interest at heart. As a consumer educator myself, I know some of the information -- especially related to finances -- is crucial. I've talked with so many people over the years who have been burned because they thought everything was taken care of with the divorce decree. Unfortunately, that's not the final word on how things will work out! That is especially true with regard to credit. If you have joint accounts PLEASE read their warnings or you may likely get stuck with your ex's bad credit for years. Even if you have a great divorce attorney, he or she won't have time to cover all the topics in this book with you, so I recommend it to make sure you're well-informed. One more caveat -- make sure you get the 2nd edition of this book, which is the most recent!

Good overview

Overall this book covers a lot of important topics with regards to the whole divorce process with good explanations and definitions. While some areas could have gone into more detail and perhaps provided some worksheets or step by steps guides, I don't think any (critical) issues were left out. While some other books I've seen stated the obvious and left you thinking "well duh"...this book had good information throughout.
