In this episode, we will discuss divorce mediation and if divorce mediation is for wimps.

I wasn’t sure if I was going to use this one but I thought it would bring a good topic.

So this myth is mediation is for wimps. So the question here is Divorce Mediation for wimps?

And the one reason I want to bring this up is because I think this is a guy thing. It’s obvious it’s not a girl thing or a woman thing.

I think you’re weak if you’re just going to let somebody else take control of your life. And tell you what you’re going to do with your life.

So I think if you have it in you, you have to have a lot of strength and a lot of willingness to commit to the process to be able to work it out to where it’s worth it for everybody involved in the end. So I think it’s not for wimps.

It’s for somebody who wants to make sure that everybody comes out fairly pole at the end of the process.

In this episode, we will talk about divorce lawyers and if they do understand divorce mediation.

The myth was all Divorce lawyers understand and support mediation.

So I turned this into, do divorce lawyers understand Divorce Mediation? And we can answer that in a couple different ways.

No, I don’t think they understand the pure process of mediation. They just have had a different training and different mindset.

A lot of attorneys, a lot I think I’ve mentioned before have gone through the mediation training in order to retain more clients.

And they understand that this is something that is becoming more popular and people are actually looking towards.

In this episode, we will talk about if divorce mediator does decide what is fair for both parties.

The myth was in mediation the mediator decides what’s fair.

Have you ever had that as a concern, so, I post the question, does the divorce mediator decide what’s fair during divorce mediation?

You know what absolutely not! We do not make any of the decisions.

And a really good mediator will remember that from the beginning until the end. Our job is to ask really good questions, lots and lots of questions.

So if you see something happening and see like maybe the balance, the power is tipping a bit without jumping in and rescuing the other party and it could be either party.

It could be the wife taking control and manipulating and then or it could be not it could be either way.

In this episode, we will discuss divorce mediation and how it is not for everyone.

The myth was mediation is always the best option for every divorcing couple.

So is Divorce Mediation is the best option for everyone?

No. In my earlier days and when I was training and going to school, I just thought this is the answer to world peace.

And everybody should just sit down and if you’re a good enough mediator, you can get an agreement out of anybody.

That is not the case. Now there are issues especially in Divorce that you do not want to mediate. You shouldn’t mediate.

It’s not appropriate for mediation. It’s something and that’s why the courts are there and that’s why good attorneys are there and that’s why the judge is there to protect people from these kinds of things.

And that’s domestic violence and any kind of child abuse going on and any kind of serious criminally activity with money on either side.

Those kinds of things cannot be mediated.

My dad worked for Union. He had some pensions with Union. Thank God! But he died of cancer.

My mom never worked. And is that a scenario where Life Insurance would have been beneficial or at that age is it more difficult to get that those types of insurance policies?

Or they cost prohibit it because it caught up my mom in a bad position because she has Social Security and a small pension.

Thankfully, there was at least that small pension that passed on to her. But had there been insurance policy to boot?

In this episode, we will talk about importance of changing beneficiaries after divorce in California.

I don’t know if we touched on the importance of changing beneficiaries after the Divorce has finalized because we’ve all heard the whole stories not only with health life insurance.

I’m sure that if you’re Divorce that wasn’t the intention. Because the important thing to know is, when it comes to you and let me know if this is correct or not.

When it comes to your Divorce judgment your Divorce Decree if you will, if you said, you’re keeping your life insurance policy or these investments, and you die and you haven’t changed your beneficiaries, that beneficiaries will over-way the ruling of the court.

In this episode, we will talk about beneficiary options for children during divorce in California.

As it pertains to Life Insurance and with having young children and making them the beneficiaries, going through a Divorce, what are some of the options folks have?

Can they assign other beneficiaries or how does that work and how does that ultimately get transferred?

changing beneficiaries for some is very easy. And it’s usually one page form. You say, ‘Now I want my brother to be the beneficiary.’ and you sign it.

It’s that simple.

So what we usually encourage people to do is that they’re not going to go down the road of some sort of trust, is to name a family member an adult family member who’d be the one that they would expect to handle their affairs when something happened to them.

And so that maybe, I mean it’s still be a parent depending on how old you are. It maybe a brother or sister or somebody or an extremely close friend but that’s your choice to make.

And the changing it like I said is very simple.
