If you are a parent facing divorce, you want to protect your children from a bad divorce. You don’t want to drag your child or your family through a legal battle.
Instead, you want to end your marriage in a private, peaceful and respectful manner. You very likely have come to the conclusion that the process of divorce is not a do-it-yourself project.
Your divorce will involve legal issues, financial issues, and family issues.
You need professional help. You don’t need a legal battle.
We have built our practice to help families like yours.
Here Are 3 Ways That We Help Parents Divorce Better:
- Stay Out of Court – You don’t need to go to court to fight. Instead, your divorce attorney can help you create a custom plan on how to approach your divorce in a private and respectful manner. This plan will include specific goals, tasks, disclosure, and private settlement meetings with your spouse and his or her attorney. You can and should expect to maintain control over the important decisions that will be made in your divorce. This can only happen if you and your divorce attorney create a plan to stay out of court.
- Don’t Add Fuel to the Fire – Your divorce attorney should not instigate problems between you and your spouse. You are going through a divorce. This is already a very difficult and emotional time. Expect your divorce attorney to be someone that is helping you to find durable solutions instead of someone that is looking to create problems. We provide our clients with fixed fee options that help us to establish trust with our clients that we are here to help, instead of creating problems to rack up hourly billing.
- Avoid Mistakes and Save Time – Your divorce attorney should help you understand what you don’t know. There are many legal requirements that must be met to obtain a Final Judgment of Dissolution of Marriage. You should rely on your divorce attorney to know and explain the laws of divorce to you. He or she should have at least ten years of experience handling divorce matters in Florida. An experienced divorce attorney will help you to identify and resolve all issues in your divorce without mistakes.
