When someone faces the prospect of a divorce, that person may hesitate to initiate the dissolution of that marriage for many reasons.  Clearly, most people in this situation are experiencing many powerful and confusing emotions that do not lend themselves to action, but another common reason for hesitation is because people are deeply concerned about the potential cost of a litigated California divorce.  While Hollywood divorce watching is not likely to offer any solace to those who may be ending their marriages soon, a look at how the recently completed divorce of Charlie Sheen took effect could reassure some that divorce does not need to be a long-term, terrible fight.
