Your Divorce is Final. Your Legal Documents Still Name Your Ex.

That's not a technicality. That's your Ex inheriting your house. 

You did everything right. You negotiated your divorce. You signed the papers. You updated your name. You moved on.
Most people walk out of the divorce thinking the legal part is over. It's not. And now your Will, your retirement account, your life insurance policy — they still say your ex-spouse's name.
Not because you forgot. Because nobody told you this was a separate step.
If something happened to you tomorrow, here's what plays out:
🧨Your Ex receives your 401(k) — beneficiary designations override your Will entirely.
🧨Your Ex receives your life insurance.
🧨Your children's guardian gets contested in court.
🧨Your family spends months and thousands of dollars untangling a plan that was never updated.
This is the part of divorce that doesn't come with a checklist.
Until now.

What You'll Find Inside

  • How to remove your ex from Wills, Trusts, and Powers of Attorney — so the wrong person doesn't end up making decisions for you or your kids.
  • Which beneficiary designations to update immediately — retirement accounts, life insurance, and bank accounts that override your Will.
  • What to do about guardianship for your children — especially if your current plan still defaults to your ex.
  • How to protect yourself if you become incapacitated — and why your divorce decree doesn't automatically handle this.
  • The digital assets most people forget — from password managers to crypto to social media accounts.

"Nothing short of amazing!"


Working with Tamara has been nothing short of amazing. In all honesty, I don’t think I could have gotten through this without her. The whole idea of a "divorce coach" was completely foreign to me.  Not only has Tamara made the legal process seem less daunting and uncertain, but she’s helped me to realize that I am not responsible for my spouse’s happiness, and this realization has freed me to claim this next chapter of my life with hope and without guilt.

"I wish I had discovered these tools sooner."

 

After Tamara taught me how to work with the Enneagram and other communication tools, I began to feel compassion not only towards my ex-spouse, but for myself as I have also struggled with communication over the years. Her guidance has not only improved collaboration with my co-parent, but it has improved my relationship with my current partner as well.
I wish I had discovered these tools sooner.

"I finally completed my plan."

I had a plan done in 2019 that was never funded and it just sat there because I didn't understand it. Tamara took the time to go over everything with me and redid it all so it matched what I actually wanted. Then she handled all the funding for me so I didn't have to worry about it. Thanks to Tamara, I finally completed my plan and I feel relieved knowing my assets are protected.

"I'm communicating more clearly with my Ex."

 

I've started setting firmer boundaries, communicating more clearly with my ex, and making choices based on what's best  for my future instead of staying stuck in the past. Tamara pushed me to look at things from a different  angle, but always in a way that felt respectful and constructive. The balance made a huge difference.

"Highly recommend!"

From start to finish, the establishment of a revocable trust for our family was seamless with Tamara Arnold at Truce Resolutions. She thoughtfully addressed all concerns, made sure everything that was important to us was included in the language of our trust, and presented us with a legal document we can use to avoid probate for our heirs. She even interviewed my husband and me and saved the recording for our heirs to hear, in our own voices when the time comes, why we wanted to take these steps to leave them a legacy. I highly recommend Truce Resolutions for your estate planning.
