Bad judgment is common during divorce when emotions are highly charged. If you are facing a major decision such as whether to go to trial or settle your case, calmly consider your next course of action. Speak to people you trust to gain a new perspective but remember, even your friends, family and lawyer’s judgment can be clouded. Thus, before you come out guns-a-blazin’ or walk away cold turkey, consider hiring another lawyer to discuss your case and give you a truly neutral, uninvolved opinion. This could save you years of regret and make you feel confident about your final decision.
