Divorce is a complicated issue, and while there are many reasons to end a marriage there are also many incentives to avoid a split. Although many may believe that family and emotional distress may be the top reasons why couples avoid divorce, new research suggests that the actual cost of the process is the top concern among troubled couples. As a company that provides an organizational platform for those preparing for divorce, LegalLogs highlights this study, believing that if financial worries could be relieved, many people would exit their unhealthy marriage to enter a better future.
A recent article from The Huffington Post explains the research further and states, “According to a new survey by legal forum Avvo, couples facing divorce say that the cost of splitting up is their number one concern. Avvo surveyed 890 of their consumer users and 447 attorneys in June 2013 and found that the cost of divorce was the biggest concern for 58 percent of respondents without children. Other top concerns included property division (42 percent), the length of time a divorce would take (27 percent) and alimony (22 percent).”
Chris Kennedy, founder of LegalLogs responds, “This survey is important, because it suggests that there is a great deal of unhappy marriages in the U.S. that are simply holding out due to financial worries. Concern over the cost of a divorce should never prevent one from leaving a bad relationship, so it is essential that individuals understand that there are many ways for them to dissolve a marriage in an affordable manner. One of the best ways to alleviate financial anxiety is to stay organized and document everything from financial records to personal evidence to ensure that you have a solid case for divorce.”
According to Chris Kennedy, the need for greater relief from financial and legal burdens during a divorce is what motivated him and co-founder Erik Lane to create LegalLogs. The tool provides a comprehensive, secure platform that allows individuals to thoroughly document any evidence pertaining to a divorce and share it with a trusted attorney.
This emerging resource is not only able to assist with financial organization, but can also strengthen an individual’s presence within a case to protect parental rights. This latter remains a top worry as The Huffington Post article reveals, “For couples with children, cost is second only to custody concerns, which was cited by 53 percent of respondents.”
As a parent that has gone through divorce and faced child custody issues, Chris Kennedy says, “Unfortunately, protecting your parental rights and trying to even gain shared custody will add to the total costs associated with the legal procedures involved in divorce. If you are unprepared or disorganized, the court may take the side of your ex-partner, and thus, waste all your efforts. LegalLogs can help relieve that pressure, protect your assets and strengthen assurance that you can maintain your parental rights.”
