Four Small Words – One Big Consequence
If you’ve arrived at our website, it’s possible you’ve recently heard the four words that no one wants to hear from their spouse – “I want a divorce.”
You may be in a state of shock. You may have been completely blindsided by this news. Sure, life may not have been perfect – you had your disagreements, your share of difficulty, your moments of distance. But you didn’t envision things ending up here.
On the other side of the coin, you may have arrived at our site because you are the one who uttered those words. Maybe you’ve suddenly discovered a betrayal by your spouse that you just can’t get over. Maybe you’ve been growing apart for years, and you just couldn’t stand the loneliness anymore. Maybe you’re just two different people, with different goals and different dreams. After all, one of the only constant things in life is change.
However you ended up here, chances are, you may feel overwhelmed. You may feel panicked. You may not know where to begin taking your next step. If you feel that way, know this – you are not alone.

The Ease of Using Zoom to Meet with Your Attorney
Sometimes, an in-person meeting is ideal, but for one reason or another, going to your attorney’s office or to a meeting place together just isn’t possible. In the past, this might have meant discussing matters over the phone, or cancelling the meeting altogether. Fortunately, now there are other options.
What to Do Before filing for Divorce
From protecting your assets to deciding whether to move out of the marital home, here’s what you need to consider before beginning divorce proceedings.
Where do I begin?
Your world feels like it’s falling apart – and that’s understandable. It’s normal to feel out of control in the midst of a situation as complex and unknown as a divorce. Something in your life is broken, and you need it to be fixed, and you know that you can’t fix it yourself. This can be a frightening thing to realize, especially when so much is at stake.
If you feel as if you’re in a tailspin – worried about how you’ll move past this, unable to envision how you’ll rebuild your life on your own, panicked about paying bills, caring for your children, splitting your holidays, dividing your retirement accounts, losing your savings – the first step is to take a deep breath. The next step is to call us.
When you do, we’ll set up a confidential, in-person consultation, where you can tell us your story. We’ll listen to your concerns, and discuss the things that matter most to you – your family, your finances, your future. We can help you create a plan to move forward without fear.

Can I really trust a lawyer?
Sure, they want me to give them a call, you may say to yourself. All lawyers do. In your mind, you may assume any number of things about lawyers, and sadly, some of those assumptions are accurate when it comes to many. You may feel that lawyers made the law too confusing, using complex jargon, and terms you don’t understand. Maybe you feel that they won’t treat you as an active participant in your own case – that they’ll go over your head with complex negotiations that they don’t even bother to consult you about. You may feel that to a lawyer, you are just a “case” – just a number, or a dollar sign, or some facts and figures on a piece of paper. If you feel that way – We’re sorry. And we’re here to reassure you that we’re different.
We are different
Divorce is what we do and it’s our focus. When you call us, you aren’t calling a team of attorneys that focus on fifteen different areas of practice and constantly have their attention and focus divided. Here, our focus is on family law. We understand the law, and we have years and years of practice putting our knowledge into practice. We have the most up to date knowledge in all areas of family law, and the technology to streamline our practice in the most efficient and effective manner possible to provide you with the focused attention and quick response time that you deserve.

To us, you’re more than a case and more than just a client. You’re an individual – a person with a story and a unique set of concerns – and you matter to us. We’ll make sure you know it.
When you choose us, you’re choosing a firm that cares about you, and about giving you the information and advice about your case that you deserve.
How can I afford the help I know I need?
Understandably, many people panic as they contemplate a divorce, not only because of the divorce itself but because of how they’re going to afford it. Most likely, you have a mortgage payment to make each month. You may have car payments too. Maybe you have student loan debt, or credit card debt, or medical bills that continue to pile up month after month. You feel worried that divorce will break the bank, and we understand this.
Some people assume that when they hire a divorce attorney, they’ll pay an exorbitant amount for each phone call, each email, each piece of advice they get. They envision the bills rising and rising, and wonder how they’ll ever be able to afford it.
We don’t want you to feel that way, and we want to reassure you that we’re different. When you come in to talk with us about your case, we’ll be clear, up-front, and honest about what we charge. With our straightforward fee structure, you won’t have to worry about being taken by surprise, or ambushed by a stack of bills you didn’t expect and can’t begin to afford.
Divorce is stressful enough. You don’t need your attorney adding to that stress.
Take the first step toward the rest of your life
You’ve made your decision. No one is thrilled about divorce, but you know it’s the best choice for a marriage that can’t be saved. If you’ve made this choice, the one thing you don’t want to do is delay. Starting the divorce process without fully understanding your rights can quickly lead to disaster. It’s important that you understand all that’s involved, and how it might affect you.
If you don’t consult an attorney and you dive into this process alone, it’s highly possible that you may only end up hurting yourself and risking your rights to things like alimony, equitable division of property, and more. Don’t take that chance. You need reliable advice, and you need it now – before you jeopardize your finances, your family, and your future.
We’re here for you, and we’re ready to get started helping you to begin the first page of your new chapter. We look forward to speaking with you soon.
We will always go the extra mile to get the best possible outcome in your case.
That means we will take the time to listen to your concerns and truly understand what’s important to you. We will explain each step in the process, taking the worry and stress off your shoulders. And we will be upfront and fair about the costs involved in your case.
