Divorce Basics
Divorce can be a lengthy and overwhelming process. When a difficult marriage cannot be resolved by mediation efforts, Divorce or a Legal Separation becomes the only viable solution. The process of filing for a divorce entails several decisions and factors that need to be sorted out such as: type of divorce, grounds for divorce, spousal support, alimony, child custody, visitation rights, marital asset and property division, and more. As Divorce Laws vary by state, it is highly advisable to consult with a Divorce Attorney licensed in your state to help you sort through all of these various factors and protect your best interests.
