The Biggest Challenges in Divorce Cases
We Help Clients Facing
Uncertainty about finances – How will assets and debts be divided?
High-conflict disputes – When emotions run high, things can spiral into lengthy court battles.
Concerns about child custody – How will parental rights and visitation be determined?
Fear of the unknown – What if your ex has a lawyer, and you don’t?
