In its recent Family Law issue, D Magazine turned to North Texas’ top Family Law attorneys, Abby Ewing and Jessica Thorne to hear their insights on divorce.
Abby spoke about the rise of the gray divorce among those that are 50 and older. “Many clients tell me they didn’t realize they were incompatible until they retired,” she said. “Their jobs and kids kept them busy and distracted for years.”
Jessica provided invaluable advice to couples heading toward divorce and how they can “protect their peace” amid the inevitable turmoil. Among her recommendations:
- Find something that lifts your spirit and self-esteem
- Talk with an attorney who can help provide crucial information on what to expect
- It is unlikely you and your partner are at the same emotional stage, so it is important to “give grace to let each other’s emotions catch up.”
