"You can waste vast amounts of money by hiring the wrong lawyer while engaging in a high conflict divorce. Newman shows people the playbook and provides real tactics for breaking up in a more humane fashion.” (Alec Baldwin, actor, producer, New York Times best-selling author)

The definitive guide to navigating divorce in today’s world from one of America’s top matrimonial lawyers.

Marriage as we know it in America has changed - and so, too, has divorce. Women are out-earning men. Fathers are winning custody battles. Same-sex marriage is law. In this remarkably insightful and clear guide, elite New York City divorce attorney Jacqueline Newman shares her secrets from over two decades in the trenches. This book will help you:

• Decide whether you are actually ready to get a divorce
• Protect your finances and understand division of assets
• Find the right lawyer for your situation
• Win the child custody schedule you want
• Heal and stay sane in the midst of a disorienting time

Over the course of her career, Newman has implemented her divorce strategies and coached her clients round the clock on how to navigate every aspect of their divorces. Now, in this landmark book, she offers the same tools and tactics to listeners. Newman also shines a light on the “divorce industry” where specialists of the trade financially benefit from drawn-out, high conflict cases. “Divorce,” she says, “can be simple, even if it is not amicable.” Filled with hard-earned wisdom and a touch of humor, The New Rules of Divorce is an essential listen for anyone looking to emerge from their breakup stronger, happier, and secure.

Sucks to be a woman!

Feel really bad and makes you wonder why one should marry and being a woman just sucks. Trauma of childbirth and pregnancy are of no value according to her and her view of law. Double standard.

Relevant to NY top 1% earners only

If you earn less than 150,000/year, this is not helpful. Ms. Newman is out of touch with the vast majority of those going through a divorce as she caters to wealthy clients. Citing celebrity examples continuously is irrelevant to most. Where are the rules for divorce for earners of 150K, or maintenance scenarios for a disabled partner? This attorney is out of touch with those outside her bubble. Waste of time and money listening to this dribble.
