Why ‘DIVORCElink'?
We have seen a lot of loss, unhappiness, expense and misery. We would like to help to minimise it. Divorce is far more than a ‘legal’ problem, so we have developed this site to give maximum support in all areas of the divorce experience – law, parenting, health & money.
 
More About How We Can Help You:
 

The information on this site will not replace lawyers, psychologists, social workers and financial advisers, but it will help you understand the law and processes, make better decisions, feel better and save money, all at minimal cost. It is so inexpensive and so loaded with essential information, that we guarantee it will save you time, anxiety and money.

 

DIVORCElink is a subscription site – there is some free information (see ‘Free Stuff’ in the column on the right), but the subscription site itself is full of information, printable forms and ‘How To’ guides.
 
The Discussion Forum - this powerful facility will let you place queries online for advice by experts, or contributions by other members. It is a popular feature of all great participation websites.
  
There are articles written by colleagues in other professions, and lots of extra stuff like book reviews, news and the like. New material gets added all the time.
