Divorce Lawyer

Divorce is a difficult decision that affects every part of a person and his or her family. Divorce involves many practical difficulties that must be resolved (such as child custody, property division and financial support) in addition to the emotional struggle of closing a chapter in one’s life.

A divorce lawyer can help you negotiate one of two possible paths: negotiation of an agreement or a contested divorce. The former, while less emotionally and financially exhausting, often requires legal support to maintain objectivity. In a contested divorce, the court makes critical decisions, making the process long and complex. Nevertheless, few cases go to trial, with many reaching agreements through the use of legal counsel, mediation, or the involvement of a judge.
