Experienced Divorce Representation

While each divorce case is unique, there are a variety of common issues that couples will need to address in order to legally dissolve their marriage. During the divorce process, our attorneys can assist with:

• Spousal maintenance - In some cases, a spouse may be eligible to receive spousal support that will ensure that they can continue living at the standard to which they have become accustomed. We can help you determine whether you or your ex-spouse are eligible to receive alimony, and we can ensure that the proper factors are considered when determining the amount and duration of maintenance.
• Asset division - Marital assets and debts should be fairly and equitably divided between spouses. We can assist in determining what is and is not considered marital property and help you reach an agreement on how to divide this property.
• Child support - Both parents have an obligation to provide for their children's financial needs following divorce. We can help you make sure your child support obligations are calculated correctly, and we can also help you address issues related to children's college expenses and the costs of medical care, childcare, and extracurricular activities.
• Parenting time - Both parents are typically entitled to reasonable time with their children. We can work with you and your ex-spouse to create a parenting plan that addresses children's daily schedules, holidays, and vacations.
• Allocation of parental responsibility - Different areas of decision-making responsibility for children may be shared between parents or allocated to one parent. We can help you determine how to address issues related to child custody.
• High income divorce - If you or your ex-spouse earn a large income, we can work with you to determine how this may affect issues such as spousal maintenance, child support, or property division.
• High asset divorce - We can help you understand the legal issues and tax consequences involved in dividing high-value assets such as real estate, retirement accounts, and business interests.
• Psychological and addiction issues - If a spouse suffers from mental illness or substance abuse, this may affect a variety of issues during divorce, including child custody or spousal maintenance. We will advocate for your rights when addressing these issues, and if necessary, we can help you obtain an order of protection to ensure that you and your children are safe from harm.
• Post-divorce modifications - If either party experiences a significant change in circumstances following the completion of divorce, including in cases involving parental relocation, the divorce decree may need to be modified. We can help you file or respond to this type of petition.
