Divorce May Be More Complicated than Anticipated

Untangling the legal and financial union of two people when a marriage ends is complicated and time consuming. Often, people contemplating divorce believe that they can file their own petitions. However, it is rarely as simple as it seems. Common complications include real estate issues, pension and retirement fund issues and disagreements over child custody. Court clerks are not trained, allowed or expected to give legal advice. They may tell you that forms are incorrectly filled out, but it is not their place to tell you how to draw up correct divorce papers.

Talk to a Lawyer

Talk to an experienced family law attorney about your divorce or child custody dispute. A healthy degree of precaution in the short run will provide greater financial security you and your children after the divorce.

Low-Hassle Divorce through Mediation

Attorney Jeffrey S. Williams encourages divorcing individuals and couples to resolve differences as amicably as possible. A settlement agreement including allocations of marital property and workable child custody arrangements can be created via mediation. Mr. Williams never encourages clients to waste family resources on endless, unnecessary legal fees. If necessary, Mr. Williams will use strong persuasive arguments to convince a divorcing client to discuss 401K savings plans, child care costs and other key issues in mediation sessions where these matters can be taken care of with mutual respect in a timely, private fashion.

A Fresh Start after a Long Haul

Although divorce can seem like a dark tunnel, a reasonable resolution can give a person a new lease on life after prolonged marital conflict and legal struggles.

At the Law Offices of Jeffrey S. Williams, uncontested divorces are usually handled on a flat fee basis. Even if a divorce is contested, a reasonable estimate can be arrived at which will usually prove to be correct. Contact attorney Jeffrey S. Williams to schedule a consultation.
