We have Lois Brenner to thank for turning our marriage around. We hired Lois as our mediator when we were considering divorce. When we started working with her and she realized we wanted to try to keep our marriage together she suggested a postnuptial agreement to get our marriage back on track. Having the postnuptial agreement made us both accountable when it came to our issues. Having this doc in place is clearly helping us redefine our marriage in a better way. I don’t know if we will never get divorced, but for now we are respecting each others’ boundaries and are aware of the consequences if we don’t! It was really cool that Ms. Brenner suggested this method as an option. Most divorce attorneys would not have suggested a way for us to try to stay together. She is very talented and unusual in the best possible way. If we choose to take the divorce path eventually we will definitely hire her again. In the meantime we are making it work. She is amazing.- Joseph M

The Psychology of Divorce | Chapter One
Here is an excerpt from Chapter One of my upcoming book The Psychology of Divorce.
The Role of Psychology in Divorce. The chapter argues that psychology significantly impacts human behavior and affects both the process and outcome of a divorce. While many believe divorce laws solely determine results, the personality traits and actions of the spouses are major contributing factors. There are three ways to end a marriage: litigation, negotiation, or mediation, and the participants' mindset plays a crucial role in each.
This short video explains the importance of fully understanding the psychology of your divorce before you begin the process.
