When it comes to divorce, theres the old way- and theres the fair way. I know, because I learned the hard way.
Karen Stewart

Divorce is costly. It costs money-masses of your money. It costs time-hours and hours spent in meetings, on the telephone, and completing paperwork and depositions and filing affidavits. It costs heartache as battle lines are drawn and loved ones, especially children, suffer emotional pain.

Karen Stewarts own harrowing story of divorce is an unqualified testament to these truths. Her experience led her to believe that there had to be a better way to end a marriage and get on with life. Her ideas and vision evolved into Fairway Divorce Solutions, which provides a model for divorce with dignity and an end to traditional divorce. the Fairway Process Offers:

  • a strategic step-by-step process that brings win-win resolutions regarding children, property, and money

  • a decision-making process that leads to consensus and fair outcomes

  • a focus on the children of the marriage

  • a plan to control costs that can often escalate out of control in typical divorce proceedings

  • a process that rejects blame or victimization

  • a focus on the future that has a well-thought-out plan for parenting and finances.

  • More and more Canadians are turning to this new divorce approach to help them transition to new beginnings. If you are facing the reality of divorce, you owe it to yourself, our chi8ldren, and your bank account to read a book that offers promise, not dread, and calm instead of a storm.

This Practical step-by-step process will not only save considerable time, energy and money, but most of all it will provide a clear path for a hopeful future.
Les Hewitt

Praise forClean Break
This is a vital book for anyone pondering divorce or is about to go through the trauma of this life-changing event. Karen Stewart knows what she is talking about, having experienced a gut-wrenching termination to her own marriage. Clean Break provides a brilliant new alternative to resolving the dilemma of divorce. This practical step-by-step process will not only save considerable time, energy and money, but most of all it will provide a clear path for a hopeful future.
Les Hewitt, co-author of the international bestseller, The Power of Focus

Because of her important new book, Karen Stewart has advanced the debate on divorce into a new realm where the sadistic, exploitative, adversarial system can give way to a more rational and supportive process where the parents, kids and other important stakeholders can all create new lives with dignity and the perception of winning.
Dr. Peter Gregg, Negotiation Expert, and Founder & CEO of Success Lab

The journey through divorce shared so personally by the writer makes this book very difficult to put down. Karen Stewart exposes the abuse and manipulation of adverse practices of divorce law that, as a senior divorce lawyer, I too find frustrating. Her solution is the answer for many couples seeking divorce.
Gordon Ball, Divorce Lawyer

I have just finished reading Clean Break and want to say thank you. Its an amazing document that will surely become required reading for anyone going through the qualms and traumas of divorce. Congratulations to you for rising above such a difficult divorce. Your strength, tenacity and vision will change the way people view divorce and its processes. Your experience has made a significant difference in many lives, and the best is yet to come.
Barry Tuff, CityTV and Access Television
The Fairway Process of divorce offers a much less costly and stressful alternative to the legal system; the legal system is premised on the parties being adversaries and battling it out. As a practicing lawyer, I see the stress and turmoil families go through when dealing with divorce. Karen Stewarts Fairway Process offers those involved a lifeboat, a fair way to end their marriage and move on with their life, without becoming mired in the legal system.
Brian Conway, Lawyer

If you are even remotely contemplating divorce, then for sure read this life-changing book. Clean Break along with The Fairway Process will absolutely save you time, money, and energy, and months of unnecessary heartache. It is about time someone cleaned up the messy and costly divorce process.
Dr. John F. Demartini, best-selling author of The Breakthrough Experience: A Revolutionary New Approach to Personal Transformationas seen in The Secret

You guys are greatI would recommend you to anybody.
Leslie D., Fairway client

Fairway is the first ray of sunshine I have had since the thing started.

Creating this book was an unforgettable journey for me, one I could never have completed had I not surrounded myself with supporters whose guidance, wisdom, encouragement, and unconditional caring gave me the strength and the courage to persevere.

All the authors I reference in this book, whose wisdom and forward thinking have enriched my life and inspired me to create and articulate a new divorce paradigm.
[Authors Note ]
Clean Break is a cautionary tale that begins with a narrative about my own journey through divorce, a narrative that is broken into three parts and which is intended to illustrate why I came to the decision to find a different solution to divorce and to contrast traditional divorce proceedings with The Fairway Process, to which the reader is introduced.
To achieve my goal of providing an object lesson, events described and opinions expressed are loosely based on my own experience, in part on the experiences of others who have shared with me the details of their divorce, and in part from my own imagination in order to complete the narrative. Dates, place names, personal names (with the exception of my own), and personal details are fiction. The words and actions of the fictional characters in the story do not directly reflect the words or actions of any particular person or persons.
The objective in writing the book is not recrimination, but to create a parable through which I hope to steer readers to a less painful, less expensive approach to resolving their divorce, and one that is humane and caring as best as can be managed in the circumstances.
