If divorce is on your mind – whether you believe divorce is imminent or you are considering the possibility – it’s a good time to consult with an experienced divorce lawyer. The fact is that the terms of your divorce will significantly affect not only your financial future but also your home life and schedule with your children. If you have thought that you want to contact a divorce lawyer near you, there is no reason to delay reaching out.
Consulting with a divorce lawyer is not a commitment to divorce. In actuality, once faced with the reality of divorce and its effects, many couples redouble their efforts and commit to making their marriages work. If you do determine that you need a divorce, however, having already consulted with a knowledgeable divorce lawyer leaves you better prepared to move forward with purpose.
Your divorce will follow its own unique course, but the terms that must be addressed and resolved in the process remain the same, including:
Any one of these terms can play a significant role in you and your children’s future, which makes working closely with an accomplished divorce lawyer the best path forward.
A lawyer can help you explore whether you and your spouse can reach an out-of-court agreement on the above issues, which can prevent the need for court intervention and save you resources. If one or more issues remain contested, we can protect your rights in court.

She is a nice lawyer. She helped me to fix my passport issue among other things, including family problems.
Initially, I'd thought to navigate through troubled waters on my own in the divorce process due to the cost. I hadn't before needed representation in any court case, and, not being familiar with the costs involved in having a lawyer, I was worried about moving forward with one. My fear was the expense.
