About the Book

Texans have saved over $400 million by doing their own divorces with this book. The first part explains how the laws work, how to divide the marital property, settle issues of child custody and support, and generally helps you make the necessary decisions along the way and reach agreement with your spouse (thus keeping the divorce uncontested). The second part shows you how to complete all the forms and file them with the court. At the back of the book is a complete set of tear-out forms. The book includes a CD-ROM disc containing all the forms, schedules and worksheets in the printed book for completion on computer; the Citations by Publication and by Posting kits; a marital settlement agreement and DealMaker software to create one; addresses and web links to all the Texas county courthouses; and relevant portions of the Texas Family Code. This is a complete kit with everything you need for an uncontested Texas divorce. It includes step-by-step instructions, worksheets, advice on where to get help if you need it, and practical advice about important decisions.

About the Author :
Ed Sherman was born in Hannibal, Missouri in 1938, graduated from Boalt Hall School of Law in 1964 and was admitted to the California Bar in 1965. He founded Nolo Press--and indeed the entire legal self-help movement--in 1971 with "How to Do Your Own Divorce in California." In 1988, he wrote a companion title, "Practical Divorce Solutions," for people who have difficulties reaching agreement with their spouses so they can go ahead with the actual divorce. In 2000 he met the need for self-help in more difficult divorce cases with "How To Do Your Own Contested Divorce in California." He has authored five other books, five video programs and four software packages to help people through divorce. In 1989 he founded the Divorce Helpline--a staff of family law attorneys and mediators who assist people doing their own divorces with advice, problem-solving and paperwork--again reducing the severe financial and emotional costs of divorce. His 2005 book, "Legal Essentials for California Couples," introduced the revolutionary Couples Contract which provides a strong foundation for any relationship at any stage. The book has won acclaim from professionals in the fields of financial planning, accounting, couples counseling, and religious ministry. His 2006 book, "The Couples Contract for a Lasting Relationship" (with co-author Bruce Janke), expanded the Couples Contract for use nationwide. It has been hailed by even more professionals in the above fields and was favorably reviewed by the Library Journal. His 2008 book, "Make any Divorce Better," shows couples a better way to get divorced, revealing his secrets and lessons learned from over 35 years of experience with more than 45,000 successful cases. This title won five national book awards. He lives in Santa Cruz, CA.

Review :
"I just completed my divorce using How to Do Your Own Divorce in Texas, and I am unable to fully express the depth of my gratitude! Because of this book, we had a painless, less-than-$200 easy divorce. We were able to keep things civil and simple, thanks to the author, Ed Sherman. I want to thank him for his foresight and knowledge, and the humor in the book was a breath of fresh air." --Mr. MB "It was very helpful. It saved me a lot of money in legal fees. Anyone with a no-fault divorce should find it very helpful and simple to use. I had no problem with having my divorce granted. I highly recommend it." -- reader, Dallas, TX "Sherman offers an insider's guide to making divorce go smoothly, quickly, painlessly, and inexpensively, revealing how to beat the system. He discusses strategies for the difficult divorce as well as roadblocks to a decent one. His no-nonsense guide to the legalities and practicalities of divorce is highly recommended." --Library Journal on Sherman's award-winning book, Make Any Divorce Better "You not only saved me several thousand dollars but also saved me a lot of pain and concern because I had the knowledge I needed to handle the divorce process." --Ms. DM "My divorce would not have been nearly as easy without your book. Several attorneys I consulted were not optimistic about the results they could get but I did it all my self and everything worked out infinitely better." --Ms. MS "You saved my life ...and my wife's also." --Mr. BK "I really admire you and I am very impressed with the quality of work you do. I work for a law firm, so I should know!" --Ms. JC "I want to report that I achieved my desired outcome completely ...I am now where I wanted to be and completely satisfied. Your approach is excellent. I was able to get the job done for a tiny fraction of what the costs might have been. Your advice was right on the nose. " --Mr. HH "I feel that this kind of legal assistance is invaluable ...You really threw me a lifeline when I felt I was sinking." --Ms. SB "Thanks to you, a difficult situation was made easier. My appearance in court was a "piece of cake" I'm happier than I have been in a long time!" --Ms. SD
