PRENUPTIAL agreements, how to make a separation legal, sorting finances, step-parents' rights and options for ex-pats are all issues discussed in a pocket book on surviving divorce.
The second edition of Surviving Family Conflict and Divorce has been launched with the help of local family law specialist Alison Hill.
Mrs Hill, who works for publisher Woolley & Co from her home in Redditch, said: "Divorce is never a pleasant experience and we have found that many couples considering separation are distressed further by simply not knowing what is involved. Picking out some of the main issues on separation and putting them in a discreet book that people can keep to hand is an idea that really seems to have taken off."
The book, which was first published early last year, aims to help people pick their way through the minefield of divorce and gives a step-by-step guide to proceedings.
Mrs Hill added: "Copies of the first edition went really quickly. We thought it was something worth updating and then publishing again so the second edition is now available. The idea is not to encourage more divorce, but to ensure those who do feel their marriage has broken down can be properly informed about what to do."
