You didn’t expect to be here, at this crossroads, typing questions into Google, trying to make sense of your future.
Most of the people I work with didn’t either.
They’re not looking to "win" a divorce.
They're looking to stop the chaos, get their head clear, and protect what matters most: usually their kids, their home, and their peace of mind.
I’m Steve Kaplan, 
a divorce lawyer in Monmouth County for over 37 years.
I help people who feel emotionally overwhelmed take back control of their lives—one smart decision at a time.
Let me show you how.
1. First, We Slow It Down
Divorce can feel like a fire alarm going off in your head:
-
What if I lose the house?
-
What about custody?
-
What does alimony even look like?
When people come to me, they’re often spinning. That’s why I created a completely free, private Divorce Course.
It’s the same step-by-step framework I use with paying clients, and it is broken down in plain English.
You don’t need to sign anything. You don’t even need to decide anything yet. You just need to learn what’s true and what’s noise.
2. I Help You Think Like a Strategist, Not a Victim
Most divorce websites talk about "fighting hard" or "protecting your rights." That’s fine—but I’ve found that what people really want is a plan.
I’ll help you shift your mindset from “reactive” to “strategic.” That starts with the right knowledge:
-
What NJ courts actually care about
-
How to stay out of court, if possible
-
How to spot red flags early—especially if your spouse is a narcissist or controlling
3. When You’re Ready, We Build the Right Legal Path
Not everyone who takes the course becomes a client. That’s okay. The course is built to give you clarity, even if you decide not to move forward right now.
But when you’re ready, I’m here.
Some people book a paid strategy session. Others just keep reading. Either way, you’re no longer in the dark.
You’re Not Alone—Even If It Feels That Way
You don’t need to rush into court. You don’t need to confront your spouse tonight. And you don’t need to figure this all out in one sitting.
You just need a clear, private place to start.
That’s why the course exists.
No pressure. No obligation. Just guidance.
If that sounds like what you’ve been needing, you’re welcome to preview the first lesson right here.
