You may not. The more contentious the divorce, the more devastating the financial impact of the divorce. When couples engage in a nasty divorce fight, thousands upon thousands of dollars may be soaked-up by the unsavory proceedings. Attorneys, glad to have your money in their retainer accounts, will occasionally encourage litigation so the “gravy train” will continue. Do not be ashamed to ask for financial help in the aftermath of a divorce. Also, there is no shame in filing for bankruptcy.
