If you and your spouse have made the difficult decision to
end your marriage and have been able to agree on most, if not all of the major
issues, you may think you do not need a lawyer.
The internet provides us with a wide array of information and do-it-yourself
sites and companies that promise fast and inexpensive alternatives to working
with and experienced New York divorce attorney.
At the Law Offices of Louis D. Stober, Jr., L.L.C., our
attorneys will work with you to ensure that you’re thoroughly understand you
rights and that your divorce is resolved in a fair and equitable manner. Our experts will explain the details of all
major issues like Child Custody and visitation rights. Custody and visitation can be requested by
both spouses and will be decided by a judge with the best interest of the
children in mind. The parent who lives
with the minor child has the right to ask for child support from the
non-custodial parent, which is determined by the non-custodial parent’s income
and/or the child’s need. Each spouse is
entitled to an equitable (fair) portion, but not necessarily half, of the
marital property. Our talented attorneys
will work with both parties to divide the marital property in an agreeable
way. Marital property includes assets
obtained by either spouse during the marriage but before a separation agreement
or divorce case is filed. Property
acquired before the marriage is considered separate property and is generally
not included in equitable distribution.
These are just a few of the main issues that our esteemed team will be
able to settle for you in the most professional way.
Even if you and your spouse have talked through how you
would like to resolve these issues, it is important that you not sign anything
until you speak to an attorney. We will
help you fully understand the consequences of your settlement options. You can trust that we will have your best
interests in mind while fully representing you in a New York divorce action; we
will not prolong your case and will respect your desire to reach a solution as
quickly as possible.
