Kindle version is American - Beware UK Buyers,
By
This review is from: Divorce for Dummies (2nd UK Edition) (Paperback)
I downloaded the Kindle edition of this book assuming that it was the UK edition (where it is listed).
Once it was downloaded I realised it was actually the American edition which is pretty unhelpful. Amazon's issue but I was very disappointed as it looks like a useful book.

Didn't buy this for my own use [honest!] but I'm told it was of great assistance, especially in wading through the financial quagmire.

5.0 out of 5 stars
thorough, reliable,
By Gerri Detweiler "host, Talk Credit Radio" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Divorce for Dummies (Paperback)
Divorce for Dummies is a thorough overview of the divorce process and ways to make it easier and less expensive. I know the authors from interviewing them for my Internet radio show, [...] and other articles, and I know they are very careful in the resources and information they present. I also believe they really do have the consumer's best interest at heart.
As a consumer educator myself, I know some of the information -- especially related to finances -- is crucial. I've talked with so many people over the years who have been burned because they thought everything was taken care of with the divorce decree. Unfortunately, that's not the final word on how things will work out! That is especially true with regard to credit. If you have joint accounts PLEASE read their warnings or you may likely get stuck with your ex's bad credit for years. Even if you have a great divorce attorney, he or she won't have time to cover all the topics in this book with you, so I recommend it to make sure you're well-informed. One more caveat -- make sure you get the 2nd edition of this book, which is the most recent! 9 of 9 people found the following review helpful:

Covers Many Topics,
By Abbey Grace - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Divorce For Dummies (US Edition) (Paperback)
This book hit on many topics and is a good reference book to use throughout the various stages of your divorce. Touches on a wide variety of things and generally answers some questions you might have. Some advice in this book I did not see in other divorce books such as what to do about debt in both of your names. Outlines what to do about credit card debt in both names as well as mortgage debt in both names. Mortgage debt is harder to get out of your name even if your spouse is awarded the asset. You are both still liable for mortgage debt until it is paid off or refinanced. Even if your divorce decree says that your former spouse is responsible for paying it. Book tells you how to communicate with credit card companies in regard to protecting your credit.
This book is worth reading because you will probably learn at least a few things you did not previously know. 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful:

Good overview,
By A Customer - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Divorce for Dummies (Paperback)
Overall this book covers a lot of important topics with regards to the whole divorce process with good explanations and definitions. While some areas could have gone into more detail and perhaps provided some worksheets or step by steps guides, I don't think any (critical) issues were left out. While some other books I've seen stated the obvious and left you thinking "well duh"...this book had good information throughout.
