Boston Divorce Attorneys
Divorce is a difficult and emotionally-draining process. Unfortunately, nearly half of all marriages in the United States end in divorce.
Massachusetts has taken steps to remove some of the complexity from the divorce process by enacting no-fault divorce laws. This means that only one spouse has to state that the marriage is over for a divorce to be granted.
While the matter of whether you can get divorced is straightforward, there are significant and complex issues:
- How will you divide your assets?
- How will you divide your debts?
- How will each spouse be able to financially support themselves after the divorce?
- How will your children be raised, cared for, and financially supported?
As your divorce attorneys, we guide you through all the legal aspects of divorce in an orderly manner, ensuring that the process is as stress-free and cost-effective as possible. Our singular focus on divorce law keeps us up-to-date on real estate, taxes, estate planning and other areas of the law that intertwine with divorce, enabling us to advise and assist you on those matters as well.
One of the ways we keep your expenses and stress to a minimum is through skilled negotiation and, if appropriate, mediation. The more time that is spent battling it out in court, the higher your expenses will be. Our attorneys are highly experienced at resolving difficult, high-conflict issues with a minimal number of court appearances.If you have tried all the available approaches to saving your marriage and are considering the possibility of divorce, feel free to contact the divorce attorneys at Baum & Dockter. We provide compassionate yet aggressive legal representation, working to move your case to resolution as efficiently as possible.
