Divorce Representation With Your Priorities Clearly In Mind

To get started exploring the key issues in your marriage dissolution, contact us by phone or through this website. We are prepared to work with you to resolve any of the issues you may be encounter as you go through the process of divorce:

• When you've separated but are not yet divorced, there are legal steps you can take to ensure clarity about finances and other issues.

• Determining where and with whom children will live is often one of the most emotional aspects of a divorce.

• The day-to-day responsibilities of each parent need to be worked out before finalizing a divorce where children are involved.

• Children of divorcing parents are entitled to support from both parents. The parent with whom the child does not live the majority of the time is the parent who provides financial support for the children.

• When a marriage ends, part of the divorce process involves dividing up property, assets and debts the couple had shared.

• A divorce settlement may also provide a fair plan whereby the higher-earning spouse contributes to the financial stability of the lower-earning spouse.

• When life circumstances change, it is possible for a divorce settlement to be changed to reflect the new situation.

• Even couples who were never married can benefit from legal remedies when they decide to go their separate ways.

At our firm, most clients resolve these and other issues through mediation and/or collaborative law methods. In rare cases involving contested divorces, however, litigation before a judge becomes necessary. We are prepared to represent you vigorously, with your priorities clearly in mind, if your divorce becomes more difficult than you expected.
