Supermodel Heidi Klum and Seal are divorcing

Over the weekend, TMZ reported that Heidi Klum and Seal are getting a divorce without confirming the story first. Their report hit Twitter with fervor and the couple later confirmed that the rumors are true. 

In a statement to People.com, Klum and Seal said that they would be ending their seven year marriage. They said, “We have had the deepest respect for one another throughout our relationship and continue to love each other very much, but we have grown apart.”

Even when a couple decides to end their marriages amicably they can benefit from the experience of a divorce lawyer.

Klum and Seal have four children together and Klum has a daughter from a previous relationship, who Seal adopted. 

Klum and Seal seemed to have a marriage made in heaven. The couple renewed their wedding vows every year. 

Unfortunately many marriages end in divorce and not all of them end amicably. Many times divorce lawyers are necessary to help a couple with all the issues related to divorce including division of mutual assets, property and custody of children. These can become contentious issues and can keep a person from making sound decisions. 

Divorces involve very emotional issues and there are occasion where the divorcing parties want revenge. Couples often turn to divorce lawyers to help temper their emotions and decide how to divide their assets and make certain they are awarded a favorable settlement.
