If it helps, read this once before you call.
You can hang up at any time, and you don't have to give your name.
You can call whenever you're ready, or not at all.
what to say first
“Hi, I've recently separated and I'd like to understand my options. I'm not ready to make any decisions yet.”
Your own words are just as good.
two questions you might ask
- What are my options for sorting out money and property?
- Is there anything I should hold off agreeing to or signing for now?
After the call: if it feels safe, write down one thing you learned, somewhere private.
want a copy?
Paper and downloads can be found by others. Only keep a copy if it's safe for you.
