Anger and hurt tend to figure strongly in divorce, hand-in-hand with resentment, sadness, and fear about your future. And more often than not, these emotional woes all coalesce under the banner of money. Nolo Press is known for its thorough research and user-friendly approach to legal matters, and its book on Divorce and Money is up to its usual high standards of quality. “Think financially–act legally,” the folks at Nolo say, and they explain how to do so, in detailed and practical terms, for joint accounts and hidden assets, gifts and insurance, alimony and retirement benefits, marital property and the IRS, net worth and what to do about the house. They also discuss where to seek professional help, how to keep proper records and assemble the facts, why the financial issues are so sticky, in what ways you’re at risk, and how to reduce the stress and avoid the bad scenes, when possible. A life-saver of a reference book for when you’re at your most vulnerable and disorganized, Divorce & Money offers practical and proactive advice to help you protect yourself and safeguard your financial future. –Stephanie Gold

….a newer book, “Divorce and Money: Eveything you need to Know,” by attorney Gayle Rosenwald Smith. The newer book even has its own website, http://www.divorceandmoneybook.com, which allowed me to peruse the contents, view a video clip of the author on CBS, and check her calendar to see if she would be appearing at a book store near me. Well she was, and I got to talk to her in person, which was great! She’s so knowledgeable and empathetic; her very human tone comes through in every page of her book. Gayle’s book lists at $14.95 (but I got it for less!) vs. $24.50 for the other book. At a time like this, I need to hang onto every penny I’ve got. I’m really glad I bought Gayle’s book, the information was up-to-date, thorough and invaluable. Why pay almost $10 more for an older book?

Read both books and all the reviews of 2 books with basically the same name and if you want more information in a MUCH MORE user friendly, readable (in English) format at 1/2 the price buy the other book by Smith, Divorce and Money Everything you need to know. I read a review that the Smith book just wants you to hire expensive lawyers. NOTHING could be further from the truth. No matter what, you need a lawyer and this book tells you the same thing. It doesn’t mean you have to be stupid! As a normal, middle class guy with a college education and MY OWN BUSINESS this book makes you feel like you are in Latin Class again. Do your self a favor and not only buy Smith’s book on Money get her book on Children…….you will save lots of time and stress.

Recently saw another book with this same title at the bookstore, so I picked up both. Of the two, the Nolo book was so much more helpful — it assumes you want to handle most of the details yourself, and avoid lawyers, whereas the other kept talking about how to choose a lawyer (an expensive, time-wasting lawyer).
