Divorce

Divorce CoupleIf you are thinking about filing for divorce you need an attorney. This is true whether you are contemplating a contested or uncontested divorce. If you don’t hire a lawyer, you could can easily damage your own case before it even gets started. For example, many parties hire private investigators to gather information against their spouse before the case even is filed. However, parties waste thousands of dollars having an investigator pursue leads that will not impact their case. Because of my experience, I can direct you and the investigator to pursue the leads which will have the greatest impact in your case and help achieve your desired results. Your money is extremely important during this time and should be spent the most efficient way possible. After all, a proper investigation can effect the division of your assets.
