Getting Answers to Important Divorce Questions
We understand that the issues involved in a divorce are intensely personal, and you may be reluctant to get lawyers and judges involved. However, at this juncture in your life, you may face crucial issues such as:
- What sort of child custody or visitation are you going to get?
- Are you going to have enough money to support yourself?
- Will you have to give your spouse a large portion of your assets?
If you stop short of asking for what you deserve within a legal framework where your rights are protected, you may end up regretting your decision later on.
We are not interested in provoking fights. We want to make sure both parties understand their rights and the rights of their spouse, which often enables an amicable resolution of the contested divorce.
