What are the most common financial mistakes made during divorce?

Well the most common financial mistake I see being made in many divorce actions is when someone gets involved in the process without understanding the process and their facts first. It is really important when getting divorce, to have a very in-depth case analysis so you understand the relevant facts of your case, you understand Florida law at least in general, and you understand which your likely entitlements and obligations will be prior to getting involved in the divorce action. By doing that, you likely end up with a better financial result and you likely end up with that result cheaper and quicker. That would the single biggest financial mistake I’ve see people make. People need to understand that getting divorced is largely a business transaction, much more important than buying a house or buying a car, possibly the biggest financial transaction of your life. You would never enter into a normal business transaction without first knowing where you stand before you sign the paperwork. The same is clearly true for becoming divorced.
