Matrimony & Divorce

Protection through a Prenuptial agreement

· If you are concerned about risking your assets and other rights, a prenuptial agreement may be right for you.  Call us for more information.  Here are three steps to help you think this through: “Is a Prenuptial Agreement Right for You?”

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The End of a Marriage

· No one ever expects their marriage will fail.  Sometimes one party gives up.  Other times just one person is holding on to the relationship, trying to keep the marriage going.  You may want to save your marriage, depending on your circumstances, or you may be better off getting a divorce. 

· We have been helping people to both reconcile marriages and to divorce amicably over the years.  Sometimes it’s too late and people must go to court to preserve their interests.  We can help you.

· Mediation and counseling can prevent the high costs of a struggle in court.  There is a definite amount of equity to be split.  Avoiding high court costs leaves more money for the two of you.

· Mediation can also preserve your friendship as a couple, which can be particularly important if you have children to consider.

· If you are trying to save your marriage, mediation and counseling can open the door to reconciliation.

· Other times, a person is being taken advantage of by their spouse.  In these situations, divorce can end an abusive and/or predatory relationship.

· To help you make more sense out of a difficult situation, see this information on “Divorce: Do You Need a Lawyer?”
