Miami Divorce Attorney – Andrew Boros, Esq

Did you know that divorce is a process?

di·vorce (dĭ-vôrs′, -vōrs′) n. the legal dissolution of a marriage; v. to sever the marital relationship with a spouse by a judgment or decree of divorce.

If divorce were as straightforward as the dictionary definition, the process would be a whole lot easier. But, the reality is, there are two sides to divorce — the emotional and the legal.

Couples, children, and extended families could carry on with their lives as if nothing much had changed. The “legal dissolution” could involve collegial discussions in lawyers’ boardrooms followed by the signing of papers, a handshake, and best wishes all around. Actually, some lawyers and judges favor the dictionary definition. “Treat your divorce as a business transaction,” they urge couples who come to see them. There’s a lot of wisdom in this piece of advice, if it is applied to the legal side of divorce. But this view neglects the emotional side of divorce. It’s as if they’re saying, “Business partnerships . . . marriage partnerships . . . what’s the difference?”

Most people who have gone through a divorce — and most lawyers and judges, too — will tell you that the dictionary definition captures

The wife of Yankee general manager Brian Cashman filed for divorce Friday — a day after her husband was publicly accused of a second affair, this time with a woman who was charged with shaking him down, sources said.

PRIDE OF THE YANKEES

Which pinstripe greats made the list of the best Bronx Bombers ever?

Mary Cashman, 42, submitted divorce papers in Stamford, Conn., superior court, listing her husband as “B.M. Cashman” and writing that the marriage “has broken down irretrievably.”

She is seeking permanent alimony, a split of their property and joint custody of their 13-year-old daughter and eight-year-old son.

Mary Cashman, who now has endured two publicly-humiliating allegations of her husband’s philandering, has been living apart from Brian Cashman in the family’s $3.7 million Darien, Conn., mansion with the kids, sources said.

She hired top divorce counsel Gaetano Ferro, who represented Jane Welch during her half-billion-dollar split from former General Electric boss Jack Welch.

Mary Cashman’s divorce filing came less than 24 hours after a TriBeCa woman, Louise Meanwell, appeared in Manhattan Criminal Court on charges she stalked Brian Cashman and extorted more than $6,000 from him.

Prosecutors said Meanwell bombarded him with hundreds

PHILADELPHIA — Let’s start with the appropriate perspective here: Just as the Sixers’ blitzing of Chicago on Wednesday didn’t suddenly make them the team to beat in the Eastern Conference, Miami’s 99-79 white-washing of Philly here on Friday doesn’t make the Sixers also-rans. As the Sixers reach the halfway point of a brutal stretch of games, they stand right where they did two nights ago — as the strongest candidate for the No. 3 spot in the East, a young, growing team that has a chance to push the elite hard in the playoffs.

The Heat? They’re elite, and they had one of those games Friday that makes you wonder how anyone could ever beat them four times in seven games. Three things of note from Miami’s resounding win:

• The Heat’s half-court offense played to the standards they’ve set for themselves. In a grueling 48-minute game, there will

Kim Kardashian has been making waves in Miami, as the divorce drama between her and ex-husband Kris Humphries seems to continually escalate. She’s reportedly in the sunny city for a new D-A-S-H store; however, are things taking a turn for the better and looking brighter for her love life, as well?

It may have been just a few short months ago that Kardashian and Humphries called it quits after their fairy-tale wedding and quick 72-day marriage. But K.K. might already be dating again, that is, if the recent rumors are true. As Extra reports, the reality show star of Kourtney and Kim Take New York may have something besides that series currently connecting her to the Big Apple. Gossip says she’s secretly hooking up with New York Jets’ handsome quarterback, Mark Sanchez, and that they’ve been spending time together, meeting in “hotels for dinner dates and flings.”

“Whenever Kim is in New York, they hang out. They are very careful with not being seen together — Mark is seeing someone! She has her hopes set on a bigger star than Sanchez. But for now, he’ll do,” revealed a source. And
