Questions
-
What If I have a Marital Agreement?
Answer
While a marital agreement can be a helpful tool in the case of a divorce, a signed document doesn’t guarantee its enforceability. There are numerous requirements an agreement must meet to be upheld in court. If you have an existing agreement, it is highly recommended that you review its terms with an attorney from our firm.
-
What If My Spouse Is Hiding Assets?
Answer
The accurate reporting of property is a vital component in the distribution of property. However, a spouse may not always be playing by the rules. It is against the law to attempt to conceal or hide assets in a divorce and if you believe your spouse has done so, do not waste any time in contacting our legal team.
-
Should I Hire an Attorney?
Answer
Whether you are pursuing an uncontested divorce or if litigation has become the only path forward, it is critical to consult with an experienced legal advocate, like those from our firm. We know where the common pitfalls lie and can work tirelessly to help you avoid them.
-
How Long Will My Divorce Take?
Answer
Frustratingly, there is no simple answer to this question. If the divorce is uncontested, the process can be relatively quick. However, if one party disputes the motion, it can add a substantial amount of time to the process. To learn more about your specific situation, do not hesitate to contact our law firm.
