Frequently
Asked Questions
How long will my divorce take?
Because every relationship is unique, timelines naturally vary. If you and your spouse agree on major issues, the process can move swiftly and might be finalized within a few months. However, resolving disagreements over assets or custody takes longer to reach a fair outcome. We stand with you through every phase, regardless of how long the journey takes.
How much will my divorce cost?
Worrying about finances is a very normal reaction. The final cost depends on the complexity of your specific situation and whether we can reach a settlement amicably. We’ll help you prepare for what’s ahead by discussing all potential costs during your consultation.
Do I have to pay all the attorneys’ fees myself?
Typically, each person covers their own legal expenses. However, the law understands that income differences exist. If your spouse earns significantly more than you, the court may order them to contribute to your fees. We will assess your finances to determine whether this request makes sense for your case.
Can a grandparent be awarded custody or visitation?
Grandparents provide love and stability that children cherish. While biological parents usually have primary rights, courts may grant grandparents visitation or custody when it protects the child’s well-being. This typically occurs if a child’s safety is at risk. We can help you understand these specific rights.
