No matter who initiates the divorce or if it is decided by mutual agreement, getting divorced is difficult. It represents a dramatic change in your life. We work with you and the particulars of your situation to assist you and protect your rights as you go through the process. The statute governing the division of assets provides that all assets, no matter how or when acquired are marital assets ("marital property" or "marital assets").
Ideally the parents agree to what the best situation is for the children. There are many traditional and creative options to meet the family needs in raising the children. The best interest of the children should be the primary factor in making the decision, and there are many ways to meet the children's needs.
A prenuptial agreement (also known as premarital or ante-nuptial agreement) is a contract between two people prior to marriage that specifies how property, debt, and assets are to be divided in the event of divorce, death, or separation. Prenuptial agreements can be as simple or as broad as you want it to be depending on your financial situation and whether or not you have children.
