varies not just county by county but judge by judge, says Stephanie L Watson, BellaOnline's divorce

editor of The Voice of Women. When you take your divorce in front of a judge, you are literally

leaving your life in the hands of a stranger. Your judge is not going to get to know your case the

way you know your case, and he or she will simply see it as a case, not as your life.

Before going forward with litigious actions against your ex make sure you are made fully aware of

the typical awards given by your judge. What you find out may make the difference between

settlement and deciding to keep fighting. While the text of an official document provides legal

guidelines, such as a prenuptial agreement San Diego judges do not have to follow them to the

letter; in divorce and family court, these are just guidelines. Judges have the discretion to go

outside of these guidelines at will within the family court system.

The system is not fair. The system will not take care of you and look out for your best interests.

Only you and your San diego family law attorney can do that. Remember that a good San Diego divorce

lawyer can help you present your case and allow the judge to make a choice based on his knowledge of

your case and the law. Sometimes you can have the best case, and it seems obvious the outcome, but

the judge doesn't see what you see, doesn't know what you know, and will not always get it the way

you do. Judges can make bad decisions based on not having all the information.

Your divorce is truly all in your own hands, not the court, and your San Diego family law attorney

can help you act instead of react so that you and your spouse can come to a mutually beneficial

agreement. Remember that many divorces end up in court, so unless you and your spouse can come to

an agreement that is fair, seek professional help. You can be sure that a good, honest, and

qualified family law attorney can effectively help you navigate through your difficult divorce.
