Issues in Divorce
Since 1985 our Queens divorce lawyers have been helping clients deal with all family law issues, including:
- Filing for divorce, whether no-fault or fault-based, contested or uncontested
- Child custody and visitation issues, including grandparents' rights
- Child support and spousal maintenance/alimony
- Separation agreements
- Asset allocation and complex property division
- Domestic violence
In 2010, New York joined other states in allowing no-fault divorce. This means that a spouse who wants a divorce no longer has to prove that the other spouse was abusive, cheated or committed any other type of wrongdoing.
Addressing Your Questions and Concerns
Our family law clients come to us for answers to questions like these:
- How can I keep the house, or do I need to sell it?
- How can I protect my pension from being depleted?
- How much time will I get with my children?
- How can I make sure we get the child support we need?
- How is child custody determined?
- How is spousal support determined?
- What happens if my ex-spouse wants to move away with my children?
Seeking Positive Resolutions While Protecting Your Interests
We believe it is important to seek positive resolutions to family disputes, through various negotiating tactics. We can often develop solutions that will work for both parties. However, if these methods do not produce satisfactory outcomes, we have the experience and resources to stand up for your rights in court. Every family situation is unique and we take pride in offering representation tailored to each client's individual needs and goals.
