Published

on

Preparing for divorce is key to ensuring a smooth and successful process. Getting yourself ready for divorce allows you to weigh your divorce options so you can pick the best approach. It eliminates the risk of settling for the first divorce lawyer you come across because you have enough time to research and interview several attorneys. Since getting divorced isn’t cheap, preparing for it ensures you have enough money to complete the process. Discussed below is how to prepare for divorce.

1.  Make plans for the kids

Divorce with children comes with many changes. There are many decisions to make to ensure your kids’ well-being and best interests. When preparing for a divorce involving children, you must plan how you’ll navigate matters related to child support and custody. You and the other parent should decide on factors such as:

●  Who the kids will live with 
●  How you’ll make decisions for the children 
●  Child support 
●  Custody and visitation 
●  Your parenting plan

If you and the other parent cannot arrive at an agreement out of court, then the custody issues will be resolved by a judge. You can visit here for professional legal advice and assistance with your child custody case.

2.  Hire a divorce lawyer

Whether your divorce is contested or amicable, you need a divorce lawyer. A skilled divorce attorney will help:

●  Prevent unnecessary conflict and prepare a fair separation agreement while safeguarding your interests 
●  When negotiating financial matters during divorce, such as spousal and child support, things may turn contentious. A divorce lawyer can give you the necessary legal guidance while helping you navigate through conflict points 
●  Ensure you don’t agree to things that are against your interests without knowing what you’re doing 
Since divorces often include disagreements and disputes that can be hard to resolve, a skilled attorney will negotiate on your behalf to ensure a mutually beneficial agreement is amicably arrived at.

3.  Understand your divorce options

There are various ways to get divorced. Understanding your divorce options is key to helping you pick the most suitable alternative for your situation. They include:

●  Mediation: It involves divorcing couples sitting together with a mediator to help them communicate and make decisions on critical matters 
●  Litigation: In this process, each divorcing partner retains an attorney. One spouse files the petition or complaint for divorce, and the other one is served the documents formally, after which the case begins 
●  Collaborative divorce: It’s where the involved persons agree not to litigate. Instead, they work together to negotiate and agree on the divorce terms 

4.  Gather the necessary documents

Since divorce involves extensive paperwork, gathering the necessary documents beforehand can help ensure a smooth process. Consulting a divorce attorney can help you determine the documents to prepare in readiness for your divorce, including:

●  General financial records: Sharing finances is one of the most complex aspects of a divorce. As a married couple, you’ll have to provide sufficient paperwork to give a detailed view of your financial situation. You may require income documentation like paystubs, employment records, banking details, life insurance policies, and more

●  Debt documentation: It includes mortgages, student loans, credit cards, personal loans, tax debt, and more 
●  Shared assets: They include those you brought into marriage plus those you acquired together as a couple

Prime Video to stream Tamil thriller Exam from May 15

Seven-episode series from National Award-winner A. Sarkunam streams in India and 240-plus countries

Published

on

MUMBAI: Prime Video announced on April 27th that Exam, a taut seven-episode suspense drama set against the crucible of high-stakes competitive testing, will premiere on May 15th in India and across more than 240 countries and territories worldwide.

Written and directed by A. Sarkunam, a National Award-winner, the series is produced under the Wallwatcher Films banner by the creative duo Pushkar and Gayatri, who have previously delivered Suzhal: The Vortex (both seasons) and Vadhandhi: The Fable of Velonie for the platform. Dushara Vijayan and Aditi Balan lead the cast, with Abbas in a pivotal role.

The show will stream in Tamil with dubbed versions in Telugu, Hindi, Malayalam, and Kannada, and subtitles in 15 languages, including English, a distribution sweep that underscores Prime Video’s push to globalise Indian regional content.

Nikhil Madhok, director and head of originals at Prime Video India, framed the series as both timely and commercially astute. “Exam is a very timely and relevant story that captures the emotional intensity of competitive exams and masterfully transforms it into a thrilling high-stakes drama,” he said. “We believe it is a story that will resonate deeply with millions.” Madhok noted that it was a privilege to once again collaborate with Pushkar and Gayatri following the success of Suzhal and Vadhandhi.

For Pushkar and Gayatri, the series is as much a moral reckoning as a thriller. “With Exam, we wanted to dig into ambition, injustice, and those moral crossroads that people face when pushed to the edge,” the creative producers said. “At the heart of this story is a young woman who refuses to remain powerless. Her journey is not about glamorising defiance, but about exploring the emotional and ethical cost of standing up to a system stacked against her.” They described Prime Video as “an incredible collaborator” and “the perfect home” to bring the series to global audiences.

Wallwatcher Films, which Pushkar and Gayatri founded and run, has been on a productive streak with the platform. Beyond Exam, the company is also readying Vadhandhi Season 2 for Prime Video, making the duo one of the platform’s most active regional creative partners.

The real exam, it seems, is for Prime Video itself: can a Tamil drama about systemic injustice and a young woman’s defiance crack audiences from Chennai to Chicago? If Pushkar and Gayatri’s track record is anything to go by, the answer is likely yes, and the results will be out on May 15th.
