Legal Separation for One Year or Six Months
A no-fault divorce is obtained based on separation, meaning that you do not cohabitate with your spouse. If you have minor children, you must live apart for one year. If you do not have minor children, you can enter into a separation agreement and file for divorce after six months of separation. As a skilled divorce attorney, I can guide you every step of the way — whether you are about to move out from your family home or have been living apart from your spouse for a year.
Contested and Uncontested Divorce
In an uncontested divorce, the parties agree upon all issues regarding children, finances and property. In a contested divorce, the parties are unable to agree on at least one issue. My law firm handles both types, recognizing that some cases will require court intervention. A negotiated divorce settlement that is reached outside a courtroom will likely save you time and money. In whatever manner is most advisable for your situation, I provide attentive legal advocacy as we seek resolutions to the following matters:
