About the Author

James J. Sexton is a trial lawyer with two decades of experience negotiating and litigating high-conflict divorces.

In his limited free time, he trains and competes in mixed martial arts and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. He lives in Manhattan.

Reviews

"Who would have guessed that the person who gives the best advice about marriage was the guy responsible for getting you out of yours?" --Judith Newman, The New York Times Book Review "I love it. Who better than a divorce lawyer to help a couple figure out how to keep it together?" --Andy Cohen, host of BRAVO's Watch What Happens Live "Nobody knows the dark side of marriage like a divorce lawyer, and James Sexton is a good one. In this engaging, wry, and illuminating book, Sexton shares his legal war stories and dispenses some no-nonsense relationship advice for anybody thinking about getting married or hoping to stay that way. It's an entertaining dose of tough love from a man who knows what he's talking about." --Tom Perrotta, author of Little Children and Mrs. Fletcher "Divorce is common, obviously, but how many people make the logical projection that seeds of thousands of future divorces are being planted and nurtured right now? How many couples recognize themselves as the misery farmers? While there's still time to stop themselves? James J. Sexton has a useful vantage point, blunt advice and enough grisly stories to make self-help entertaining--unless, I suppose, the marriage he's describing is yours." --Carolyn Hax, nationally syndicated advice columnist for The Washington Post "Here are three things I did while I read this book: laughed, cringed, and scribbled a whole slew of notes in the margins. In How to Stay in Love, James Sexton delivers frank, no-holds-barred advice, gleaned from the front lines of divorce. The real trick, though, is how he does it with so much love. Despite its wonderfully grim title, this is a book teeming with hope." --Grant Ginder, author of The People We Hate at the Wedding "Wryly written with plenty of candid wit and straightforward opinions... Sexton's enthusiasm and affinity for marriage stories is evident throughout as he examines issues such as honesty, sex negotiations, infidelity, long-term relationship 'slippage, ' and that stinging realization that 'what's fun when you're dating is a pain in the ass when you're married'... Sage counsel to help readers better navigate the trajectories of their own relationships." --Kirkus Reviews "James J. Sexton's book is a delightful surprise. Sexton is not offering the usual how-to-have-a-happy marriage book, but rather a how-not-to-divorce book.... Sexton doesn't judge. People fall in love then life interferes and marriages dissolve. " --Newark Star Ledger
