Protecting You and Your Family's Future and Finances
Facing a divorce can be one of the most unsettling events in a person's life. Almost every aspect of one's life is affected through a divorce. With the financial, emotional and day-to-day uncertainty, it can be an extremely difficult time. As your family law attorneys, we understand the legal and financial issues and are here to guide you through the process.
Financial Matters Though a Divorce
Outside of child custody, financial matters are typically the most contested issue through a divorce. While it can be tempting rush to an agreement just to “get it over with” it's important to remember that the decisions made during your divorce can have a significant financial impact on you and your family's life for years to come.
Child Custody & Support
If you have minor children, one of the key issues will focus on the legal and physical custodial arrangements for the children. We can advise you on the legal and practical issues involved in the various custodial arrangements. In Alabama, child support must be calculated in accordance with the Alabama Child Support Guidelines. We can discuss how the Guidelines will impact your financial future and recommend a plan to fit your situation.
Effective and Efficient - Managing Your Legal Costs
Our goal is to provide the best possible legal services at a fair price. While the number one goal is getting you the best possible outcome based on your specific situation. We have found that many family law attorneys LOVE conflict; they can file motions and demand hearings about trivial things and bill you for every second of it. Instead, we work with you to come up with a reasonable plan to reach a resolution in your case. The uncontested divorce is the most cost effective option, however in some cases it will be impossible to come to a reasonable agreement with the other side, in which case the contested divorce will be necessary. We have experience in all types of divorce cases and understand the legal and financial issues involved. Any divorce is going to cost money and take time, but there is no need to spend more money or time on it than is absolutely necessary to accomplish the task at hand.
