Tips for the divorce process
Here are a bunch of ideas and recommendations to ease the difficult divorce period:
During emotionally charged times, it is recommended to try to engage in hobbies, favorite activities, even those that we usually don’t find time for, or don’t allow ourselves to engage in, for financial or other reasons. Now would be the time to indulge in hobbies, spending time with friends, and even occasional luxury meals, if this allows for relief from the emotional burden. Of course, it is advisable not to persist in large financial expenditures or in routinely loosening the rules of life.
It’s worth practicing meditation. Studies show improvements in relaxation, heart rate and blood pressure, and overall health in people who meditate regularly.
It’s worth considering a support group, whether among friends or in a professional setting. Especially for women, studies show that sharing makes coping easier.
Allow yourself to feel the full force of emotions, such as anger or sadness. Allow the transition to be emotionally productive, and give these feelings space so that you can release them when the time comes. Don’t rush the process and try not to hide it all the time.
Divorce at the request of only one spouse
A spouse can be forced to divorce according to the wishes of only one spouse. This is only if there is a reason for divorce.
Grounds for divorce are a term defined by law and case law. Since a divorce application without sufficient grounds may be rejected by the Rabbinical Court, it is highly recommended to consult an experienced attorney in the field before filing for divorce.
Grounds for divorce accepted in Jewish law according to the Rabbinical Court are: physiological (such as infertility or lack of virility, disability or deformity, etc.), and behavioral grounds (such as refusal to have sexual relations, infidelity, or even interference with the observance of religious commandments).
Prepare yourself for difficult divorce proceedings
If the decision to divorce is final, you can prepare for the process emotionally – first, it is recommended to start gathering details regardingExperienced divorce lawyer.
It is possible for both spouses to hire the same lawyer, but this is not recommended, because even under the best of conditions of friendship between the spouses, the divorce process is likely to provoke disputes. It is advisable for each party in the divorce process to have their own lawyer.
It is worth collecting data, taking photos of documents that show the buyer’s affinity for the property, planning strategies regarding the division of property, and collecting expense documents and receipts.
If there is suspicion of an affair or betrayal by the other party, it is important to obtain evidence regarding this, as the situation of a betrayed spouse is ten times better when it comes to the division of property, the realization of the ketubah, and alimony, and we will expand on this later.
