Comprehensive Support For Complex Divorce Cases
When your marriage involves safety risks, unstable or violent behavior, you need a complex divorce lawyer who knows how to handle high-stakes situations. We focus on complex divorce cases where one spouse may have mental health issues or a history of physical, emotional or sexual abuse.
We assist clients with:
- Divorce from bed and board: This is a court-ordered legal separation. If your spouse is abusive or has a drug problem, we can ask the court to remove them from the home before the marriage officially ends.
- Domestic violence protection: We help you get restraining orders to keep you and your children safe from physical or emotional harm.
- Complex child custody cases: If child protective services are involved, or when allegations of abuse and safety concerns arise, we fight for a parenting plan that puts your child’s safety first.
- Property and asset division: We ensure your spouse does not hide money or take advantage of you during the financial split.
- Substance abuse issues: We present evidence of drug or alcohol problems to ensure the court understands the risks at home.
- Mental health issues: Our divorce attorneys are well aware of the complexities various mental health issues can add and how this can affect this next chapter in your life.
Our team gathers the evidence needed to prove your case in court. We are tenacious advocates and we will stand by you during every hearing to make sure your voice is heard.
