California Divorce Tutor : How We Protect Your Privacy

There are tons of online divorce companies out there, that is for sure. What has always amazed me is that people are willing to enter all their personal private information into a website where they store your personal information.

Think about it, they have your name, address, social security number, credit card information, children’s name and birthdates and lists of all your assets and debts.

Sounds like a perfect storm for identity theft.

That is not the case when you use California Divorce Tutor. All of the forms we supply you with are security enabled forms. And you don’t store them on our servers, they are saved right to your computer so nobody but you has access to see them. This way, there is no chance of anyone seeing your private information.

Moving My Mom & Visiting My Brother

Well this weekend went by fast. My middle brother, Todd, and I went up to Apple Valley to help my mom pack for her move to San Diego.  Packing and helping move someone is not my idea of a well spent weekend, but it was a good time to visit both my mom and my brother.

We made the best of it and got out there at around 11.  Todd and I had a plan to have everything packed by 5 pm so we could hang out, relax and go to dinner.

We had to hustle to get everything done by 5, but we were able to make it with no little left over things that needed to be taken care of.

Finally, we were able to sit down and relax and have a few cocktails.  Around 6 pm we decided to go have sushi.  So I told my mom and brother, I would just order up a Uber ride.  That is my go-to service when i need a ride somewhere for whatever reason.

But to my surprise there were no cars available at all!

So what I had to do is just leave the Uber app on for about 15 minutes before a driver finally appeared. It then took about 20 minutes for the driver to arrive.  I guess it does not pay to be an Uber driver in the desert.  But we did eventually get a ride and I even asked the Uber driver for their phone number so we could call her when we were done with dinner, just to make sure we had a ride home.  That worked out well.

It is already Sunday late afternoon and I am home.  Just enough time to sit down with the family for dinner and write a few words on my blog here.

I think we will sit down and bing-watch our current netflix series we are watching which is Person of Interest. We started it about 2 weeks ago and are on episode 25 of 90.

Talk to you tomorrow.

Valencia Divorce Paralegal : Judgment Forms vs Marital Settlement Agreement

Years ago our company got away from using Marital Settlement Agreements. The writing was on the wall that the court’s were going to a more uniform manner of completing the California divorce paperwork.

When you go through a Valencia Divorce, you know that the divorce paperwork is all about forms. This form for this and that form for that. The divorce courts, have for some time now, used judgment “forms” instead of what was known as a Marital Settlement Agreement.

 

The change to the California divorce forms was to make the divorce process a bit more uniform and hopefully easier to complete your divorce. What the divorce judgment forms have done is give you a way to complete your divorce judgment by using forms instead of having to draft a narrative style agreement.

The biggest issues people were having with preparing their divorce agreements is that they lacked the sufficient legal language. This caused the courts to reject judgments more often than not.

The forms solves this issues for many of the problems people were having. The divorce judgment forms have check boxes and prompts for the information you will need and most often used when completing your divorce.

Again, our company went to this format several years ago and I have spoken about this often. In fact, about a year or so ago, I had someone who became a client of our watch a video about this that I did not Youtube where I said it is better to use the judgment forms rather than the settlement agreement.

She called me to tell me that she did not take my advice and then had her divorce settlement agreement rejected by the court. This client ultimately hired us to complete her Valencia divorce case which we did using the California divorce judgment forms.

Valencia Divorce Paralegal : Don’t Wait 6 Months To File Your Divorce

There is a big misunderstanding about California divorce and the 6 month rule. This video and article is more about the tactics of how to process your divorce paperwork and helping you to understand the fastest way to process your Valencia Divorce case.

 

People feel that once they file for their divorce that they cannot turn in the final paperwork until 6 month afterward. Here is why this is incorrect and what the real rules are.

The 6 months is the soonest your divorce case can be finalized. The 6 month clock starts ticking after the other spouse has been served. But when you turn in your final paperwork has nothing to do with the 6 month rule regarding divorce.

Depending on they type of Valencia Divorce case you are filing (Hybrid, Uncontested, Default) you most likely can turn in your final divorce paperwork as soon as 30 days after the Valencia Divorce has been filed and served. Remember, the clock starts when the divorce paperwork is served. Everything else hinges off of this date.

3 Day Weekend, 13 Hours & Not Going To Santa Barbara

My 3 Day Weekend – Not

While it is a 3 day weekend for some, it certainly is not for me.  I don’t think I have had a 3 day weekend since I have started this business.  Because when you are a business owner, you are always working.  Our offices might be closed, but I am always working.

Point in fact, I am sitting here at home writing this article and earlier in the morning was recording videos and posting them on my Divorce661 Facebook page.

When I even hint at complaining about feeling like I am always working, my wife is always there to remind me of all the good things that come with owning a business. And she is right.  My wife works hard.  She is up by 5 and out the door by 6 to be in Los Angeles by 8.  She takes the Metrolink and isn’t home until 7:30 p.m.  At least my business has the flexibility for me to leave the office as necessary to take our son to his tutoring and the other activities he needs to get to.

The thing about owning a business is that it is always on your mind.  For me, I am always thinking of how to generate business.  Always thinking about marketing and much of that occurs in the evening or on the weekends since most of my Monday through Friday during business hours is spent working with clients.

13 Hours – The Secret Soldiers Of Benghazi

Today I took my wife and son to see the movie 13 Hours – The secret Soldiers of Benghazi. I really enjoy movies that are based on true stories and this one said “This is a true story” it did not say based on so I assume they stuck to much of what actually happened.  The other thing I enjoy is watching military type movies and thrillers.

This is probably from my having been in the Military.  But this movie kept you on the edge of you seat and was a great, great movie.  My wife even said she wanted to see it again and I there were no complaints from our son.  And I won’t get into my personal politics or feelings about what happened in Benghazi.

Not Going To Santa Barbara

My birthday was this past Wednesday on the 13th.  We did not do anything fancy, in fact we did nothing and was just a regular day.  So my wife said we could do whatever I wanted on the weekend.  So I booked three nights in Santa Barbara at an RV Resort names Flying Flags.  I had never been there but saw a friend post on Facebook how much they liked it there a few months ago.

I could tell that my wife was pretty exhausted from the week and decided to call it off.  I made up a story about having a lot of things to do for the business.  My wife is way tougher than me and would never say anything, especially if it was something I wanted to do.  So I knew that if I did not call it off, she would not either.  She would just go and not complain.  In fact she would just make the best of it and you wouldn’t know if she was not feeling well or not.

So we did not go to Santa Barbara for the weekend and just stayed home. She slept 10 hours and did not wake up until 9 am on Saturday which proved to me that I was on track and she needed her rest.  Right now in fact we put on a movie from Netflix and I just looked over and while I write this she has passed out and is sleeping.  It is only 5 p.m. I knew she needed to rest.

As much as feel like I am working, I do enjoy writing these personal posts.  Not so much for other people to read them, which people like you obviously do, which is great.  But I actually enjoy writing just for writing. And perhaps when I am gone one day, these articles I write can be viewed by my wife and children as sort of a diary.

My daughter who is in college now just returned from the gym at LA Fitness and went by Wal-Mart to grab a few things from the house.

Well enough of the personal posts, I have to get back to uploading videos to my blog and to Youtube.

Talk to you tomorrow.  Tim
