Divorce Information Workshop
Are you in the considering a divorce or are you starting that process? Even though over half of all marriages end in divorce, it is still a difficult and painful time. It can be overwhelming and confusing. Understanding the legal issues around divorce is an important first step in getting through this transition. WRC's monthly Divorce Information Workshop is a confidential informational seminar designed to help you learn about the legal process, understand your rights, figure out what documents you need to gather for your first meeting with an attorney, and provide you with information so that you can make decisions that are right for you. The seminar is lead by a local attorney who is prepared to present basic legal information and answer general questions.
