The Russian novelist Leo Tolstoy once wrote, "All happy families resemble one another; every unhappy family is unhappy in its own way." But when it comes to divorce, we at Chang & Diamond, APC, in San Diego & Riverside County, California, have found that unhappiness often boils down to one issue: money.

Diagnosing a Problem

Think about it. When you earn a good salary, save a significant portion of your paycheck, and pay all of your bills on time, life is good. Your spouse is happy and you feel good about yourself. But when you finances stall and you must deal with unpaid bills, maxed out credit cards, and harassing creditors, your relationship with can be overshadowed by debt. You cannot spend, you have to cut corners, tempers flare, and blame is exchanged.
