  • Having gone through her own divorce with such poise,

    I think Lori would be a fabulous divorce coach. She's an amazing listener, is not judgmental, she's extremely empathetic, and offers thoughtful advice. She knows how to ask the right questions, making people reflect on their situations and dig deep, resulting in the best possible outcome.

    In my opinion, Lori would make any couple's divorce “better”, if there is such a thing.

  • Lori is joyful, kind and a very good listener.

    She has an unusual ability to connect with people of all sorts and easily enters into their circle of trust. She honors that trust with true engagement and discretion.

    Lori is also very capable of managing complicated situations between people that may have otherwise escalated into an unfriendly exchange. She is calm and thoughtful and doesn't let herself get flustered but instead, her presence is itself a calming force.

    A few years ago, I had a difficult time in my marriage. Lori supported me through it with wisdom and discretion. She is extremely capable and if I were in need of a divorce coach, I'd call her in a second.

Frequently Asked Questions

Discover guidance and support

What are the first steps I should take?
01

Every divorce is unique, and the steps you take will depend on your individual situation and priorities. Here are some initial steps to consider:

  • Consult with divorce coaches.
  • Consult with attorneys.
  • Gather all of your financial documents including bank statements, tax returns, pay stubs, investment statements, retirement account statements, property deeds, and any other relevant financial records.

Working with a knowledgeable divorce coach or divorce attorney in the beginning can help you navigate the process more smoothly and protect your rights and interests along the way.

Do I need a lawyer?
02

In California, you are not required to hire a lawyer to get a divorce. However, while it is possible to navigate the divorce process without a lawyer, it’s important to recognize that divorce can involve complex legal issues, especially regarding property division, child custody, child support, and spousal support. Hiring a qualified divorce attorney can be very advantageous.

What is Nesting?
03

“Nesting” in the context of co-parenting and divorce refers to a living arrangement where the children remain in the family home, and the parents take turns living there with them. Instead of shuttling the children between two separate residences, the parents rotate in and out of the family home according to a predetermined schedule.
