Doesn't really require a book. Just need to have two people agree to do something which is in the interest of both their financial futures.
The simply solution is for both to ask their respective attorneys to liquidate anything financed or order individual refinancing on any jointly financed assets in the divorce decree.
Home is in both names. Sell it and split the proceeds.
Car is in both names, either sell it or the spouse taking the vehicle agrees in the divorce decree to refi it in their name only.
Joint CC accounts? Close 'em. Either PIF the balances, or if there are large balances the spouse agreeing to take on that debt BTs the balance to an individual CC.
If it's a community property state, couple of extra considerations.
Oh, but they have to agree to this right at the time when they are most in disagreement with one another. Easy-peasy.
With DW and I, if we were ever to divorce it would be less painful, less bloody, and cause less damage to do pistols at 10 paces.
