Divorce Is Hard. Planning It Shouldn't Be. 20 Things to Ask Aparti And What You'll Want to Have Ready

Let's be real—divorce can feel like trying to assemble IKEA furniture without the manual. There's stress, there's paperwork, and sometimes there are emotional hex wrenches flying everywhere.

That's where Aparti comes in. We're your digital sidekick for all things divorce planning—whether you're just thinking about it, knee-deep in it, or finally seeing the light at the end of the "we need to talk" tunnel.

This isn't about legalese and stress spirals. This is about getting your stuff together (emotionally, legally, and financially) and doing it with tools that don't make you want to scream into a pillow.

So here are 20 helpful questions you can ask Aparti—plus what you'll want to prep to make the most of it.

What You Can Ask Aparti (a.k.a. your AI divorce BFF)

1. What does a basic divorce timeline look like for someone in [your state]?

2. How do I know if I'm ready to file, or if we still need a "final season" first?

3. What's the difference between legal separation and divorce? (And which one gets me off the group chat sooner?)

4. What do courts consider "fair" when splitting stuff?

5. What do I need to know about spousal support or alimony?

6. How do I plan a parenting schedule that doesn't feel like a full-time job?

7. What counts as a "good" custody arrangement for the kids and my sanity?

8. How do I prep for mediation without losing my cool (or my wallet)?

9. What's the best way to co-parent when texting my ex already gives me hives?

10. How do I know what financial docs I actually need (and which ones can stay in the junk drawer)?

What You Should Prepare (yes, you can do this in sweatpants)

1. A list of major assets—house, car, dog (okay maybe not just yours).

2. Income and expenses—aka where your money actually goes (and what your ex thinks it does).

3. Your kiddo's school, medical, and activity schedule—because courts love details.

4. A calm Spotify playlist for when you start digging into the paperwork.

5. Login info for anything joint: bank accounts, mortgages, that cursed Costco membership.

6. Notes about anything already agreed on (yes, even verbal ones).

7. Your future budget—because peace of mind is priceless (but groceries aren't).

8. Your post-divorce goals: new place? new vibe? solo dog mom era?

9. Questions for your lawyer, mediator, or therapist. (Bonus: Aparti helps you prep these.)

10. A snack. Trust us. Divorce planning is better with snacks.
