Every divorce involves a range of different matters that adds layers of complexity to the proceedings.

We Represent Clients in All Aspects of Divorce
We represent clients in all divorce matters that involve:
- Division of assets
- Spousal support
- Child support
- Child custody/parenting plans
Experienced Complex Divorce Litigators
There are many different factors that can make an otherwise uneventful divorce extraordinarily complex. When these types of complications arise, it is essential to work with a legal team with the experience and skill in complex divorce matters to be able to protect your interests adequately.
We have exceptional experience handling high-asset divorces, which usually come with a number of complications, including:
- Division of real estate and other complex properties
- Division of business interests and pending commercial litigation
- Division of IRAs, 401(k)s and other retirements plans and investments
- Division of inherited and gifted marital assets
We also have experience in criminal law, and we handle divorce matters where criminal activity has been alleged.
Enforcement/ Modification
We also represent clients in divorce enforcement and modifications. If one of the parties is not following the requirements of the divorce decree, the other party can petition the court for a contempt of court ruling or find other ways to enforce the decree. In other cases, the circumstances of life can change substantially for one or both of the parties, rendering the original divorce decree unrealistic. Examples include the need to relocate, financial changes and changes in health. We help clients petition the court to modify their divorce decrees to better reflect the reality of their lives.
