The Divorce Industry

By: Ron Lasorsa

Divorce has become and industry in this country and this article will shed light on how it is affecting families. One of the things I resent most about the Divorce Industry from my own experience is that they try to keep the average person in the dark. People should be able to easily comprehend the laws that they are required to abide by. As I found out myself, restraining order laws don’t have a logical basis. They vary from state to state, and they have specific requirements in terms of periods of time in which certain pieces of evidence are admissible.
For example, in my own case my ex-wife alleged that I made a threatening phone call. Based on her affidavit, she said that the phone call was made after my visitation with my daughter while I was on my way out of town. So there was an ex parte hearing that happened on one day and then I had seven days in which to respond. My attorney at the time seemed to have made a reasonable attempt to respond. What I didn’t realize is that I only had thirty days with which to appeal the original premise of the order. Once those thirty days ended, I would not be allowed to present any new evidence on the matter.
So 30 days passed, and within that time I fired my attorney and got a new attorney. My new attorney advised me to gather phone records to show that I did not make the call my ex-wife had alleged. The records clearly show that I made other phone calls during that time, but not to my ex-wife. The phone call she attested to in her affidavit never took place.
Because of the nature of legal proceedings, I had to wait a full twenty months before I was able to introduce this evidence to the court and prove my innocence. During this time, my ex-wife and her attorney did nothing to change their story, even though they had the same evidence in front of them. They simply held out in order to keep me separated from my children. That’s all. It was a mechanism. In the word’s of my ex wife’s attorney, it was “a more potent remedy to filing a motion to modify visitation.”
It had nothing to do with me being a threat, or there being a real need for a restraining order. It is simply a way to circumvent due process. This is why restraining orders are considered the nuclear bomb of the divorce industry. It can be a miserable and demoralizing process.
My newly released ebook and my video blog are part of my website: http://www.restrainingorder911.com which provides support for men and fathers who are being taken advantage in their divorce and custody matters. My ebook covers the top ten tips you need to know in order to stay out of jail, while my website gives you additional tools and information to protect yourself during a divorce.
My ebook is meant to address some of these important issues. It is concise and simple, giving you the top ten tips you need to protect yourself. It starts to emphasize the need for individuals to advocate for themselves and stand up for their own rights.
Restrainingorder911.com and my other websites focus on the men who are acting on their own behalf. The goal is not only to win, but to do so without a long, painful and expensive conflict. I went the adversarial route, and at the time I didn’t realize the damage that could be done to children. Divorce damages everyone—parents and children; and my mission is to help you benefit from my mistakes and experiences so that you and your children don’t have to suffer like I did.
My site and ebook will help you stay out of jail until you can gather the evidence to exonerate yourself.
