About Me
Divorce Law: How to Survive and Thrive

Hi, my name is Sandra. When I divorced my husband, it was one of the hardest times of my life, but at the same time, I learnt a lot from the experience. I learnt now to value myself, how to put my kids front and centre in my life and how to negotiate with my ex-partner. I also learnt lots about divorce law. I was lucky enough to have a friendly and caring lawyer who explained the entire process to me and was a guiding light. I am divorced now, and I have never been happier, so I decided to start this blog to share my knowledge and experience with other women.
