Divorce is always a difficult process. Often, emotions are intense and the issues are bitterly contested. If children are involved, your divorce may become even more complicated. It takes a great deal of skill to negotiate a settlement that represents the best interests of everyone involved so that you and your children can begin moving on with your lives.
There are many diverse issues that need to be resolved during a divorce. It is not only the dissolution of a marriage; it is also the break-up of a financial partnership. A divorce agreement must address the following issues:
Division of marital assets, property, and debts
Consideration of any prenuptial agreement
Business interests
Spousal support
Tax Issues
A divorce proceeding is always unique to the situation of the parties involved. In some cases, there are special considerations and different options that must be taken into account when going through a divorce or separation, such as:
High Net Worth Divorce
Legal Separation
Prenuptial agreements
Long Term Medical Issues
