Skilled Representation in Your Divorce Case

Regardless of the length of your marriage, the amount of assets you own, or the number of children you have, there are a wide variety of legal issues that must be addressed during your divorce. Our skilled lawyers can assist with:

• Asset and Debt Division - Determining how to divide marital property in a fair and equitable manner can often be a complex undertaking. Our attorneys can assist in determining what property is eligible for division and work to reach an agreement on how to divide different types of assets, including retirement accounts or pensions. We can also assist in addressing the dissipation or concealment of assets by a spouse.
• Spousal Support/Alimony - When one spouse earns more than the other, they may be required to pay spousal maintenance for a period of time following the divorce. We can help establish or contest eligibility for spousal support and determine the correct amount and duration of alimony payments.
• Child Issues - Children's best interests should be protected during the divorce process. We will fight for your parental rights when determining child custody arrangements, parenting time schedules, and child support obligations. We can also help resolve issues related to parent/child relocation and stay at home parents.
• High Asset Divorce - When one or both spouses earn a large income or own significant assets, addressing these financial issues can be a complex matter. Our attorneys can help resolve issues related to real estate property, business ownership, wealth protection, and hidden assets. We can also help you understand the tax issues you should consider during and after your divorce.
• High Conflict Divorce - Contentious situations can cause a divorce to become much more complicated and difficult. Our attorneys will address your concerns about infidelity, mental health and addiction, parental alienation, and stalking or harassment. In emergency situations, we can help you obtain an order of protection to ensure your family's safety.

We can also help you address the unique issues that may arise in divorce cases involving couples over the age of 50 and same-sex spouses. If you have experienced significant changes in your life after the completion of your divorce, we can help you pursue post-divorce modification or enforcement of your divorce decree.
