A free divorce workshop for women seeking clarity, confidence, and a plan.
Second Saturday Charlotte is led by Jennifer Moore, a family law attorney who has spent many years guiding women through divorce in Mecklenburg County. She's supported by the full team of attorneys here at Marcellino Moore, PLLC, so the guidance you get reflects decades of combined experience, not one person's perspective.
If you’re contemplating divorce, already separated, or simply unsure what your next step should be—you don’t have to figure it out alone. Second Saturday Charlotte is a structured, supportive workshop that offers real guidance on the legal, financial, and emotional realities of divorce.
At each workshop, you’ll hear from:
Divorce attorney: Rights, options, and what the process really looks like.
Financial expert: Assets, budgets, support, and long-term planning.
Mental health professional: Boundaries, co-parenting, communication, and the emotional side of transition.
