Louis J Cosenza
When a couple separates or divorces, the law governs custody of children, child support and the support of a needy spouse. The law also governs the division of marital property and marital debt. There are laws that determine when you may divorce, the procedure you must follow, and what proof you need.

If you or your family lives in the Baton Rouge area, you should consult a Baton Rouge divorce lawyer. The Cosenza Law Firm is ready to assist you. Louisiana has "no fault" divorce. However, the law requires a spouse who wants a divorce to live apart from the other spouse for a period of time. If there are children, the separation must last for at least 365 days.

There are many issues you should consider before filing your petition.
I hired Louis to represent me in my custody battle. From the start he was upfront and honest with me, if he said he was going to do something he did it and he never attempted to settle for anything less than what I was asking. He was not afraid to go head to head with opposing counsel which is what we ended up having to do.
In the case of a no fault divorce, the law requires that parties live separate and apart for 180 or 365 days depending on whether you and your spouse have minor children born of the marriage. Procedural rules impose additional delays as does the schedule of the individual judge to whom your case is allotted.
