Divorce advice & support
A marriage or relationship breakdown is one of the most stressful events that a person can go through – and yet, so many of us end up navigating the process alone. In a time that’s often overwhelming, confusing and lonely, what we often need most is a ‘rock’, a ‘close confidant’ we can count on. Someone who can guide us through tricky times, get us the help we need and empower us start a fresh new chapter in life. And that’s exactly what Mike Barker can provide in his role as Divorce Adviser.
What the service covers
Flying Change divorce coaching and advisory is a service that’s very much tailored to the individual – after all, every relationship is different, and the same goes for divorce.
However, regardless of your situation, Mike’s goal is to work alongside you throughout your divorce or relationship breakdown journey – acting as a holistic coordinator, advisor and source of support. Here’s an overview of some of the ways Mike can assist along the way.
Providing emotional support and guidance, free of bias or judgement.
Helping you to understand the legal, financial, tax, accounting or other expert help you may need to help you get the best outcomes.
Connecting you with any technical experts you may need and coordinating all their services and inputs (like a project manager).
Providing guidance and support with matters involving children, such as custody,
access and financial support.
Attending meetings with any of your experts to either provide support or help you make decisions.
Acting as an intermediary for commercial discussions on your behalf.
Dealing with everyday separation ‘life admin’ (from opening up new bank and email accounts, to setting up IT devices or even moving house).
Attending any Court and/or mediation or other dispute resolution hearings and meetings with you.
Helping you decide your strategy in any dispute resolution with your former partner.
The advantages
A holistic perspective
By coordinating inputs from experts such as lawyers, tax advisers, financial advisers and psychologists, Mike can help you understand the advice you’re given and make well-balanced decisions, looking at the whole picture.
Reduce stress and anxiety
Divorce is often an emotional and draining time – and with Mike doing the legwork on your behalf, you’ll have time to focus on your own emotional wellbeing.
Gain clarity through objective advice
Unlike a friend of family member (who you may not want to burden, or share certain details with), Mike is purely there as a support and sounding board for you.
Establish independence
If you have previously shared advisers with your partner, Mike can help you establish a network of your own.
A single point of contact
Like a dedicated ‘project manager’, Mike can manage your broader team, simplifying the process immensely.
Greater efficiency
With a deep understanding of the divorce process, financial and tax matters and the emotions involved, Mike can advise you precisely when to engage specific expertise and what for. This can save you valuable time and money.
