Brian and Evan were excellent. They protected my interests and devised a strategy that was effective leading to an expedient outcome. As a result, I received a fair settlement that enables me to not only provide for my children but also to maintain an active relationship with them. More...

NEW YORK FAMILY LAW ATTORNEY
Family law encompasses a broad range of legal topics involving marriage and children. Common family law subjects include divorce or annulment, child custody and visitation rights, child support payments, and alimony. Family law deals specifically with children in regards to adoption, guardianship, state child protection and domestic violence.
DIVORCE
The decision to dissolve a marriage can be one of the most difficult decisions a person makes. When a couple cannot agree on provisions within the divorce, however, another layer of anxiety is added to an already difficult process. Whether the disagreement is about child custody, property division, alimony, or the divorce in general, the divorce becomes contested. Contested divorces take longer, and they require more negotiation for the couple to reach an agreement.
CONTESTED DIVORCE
The most common disagreements in divorces are custody arrangements and property division. However, a contested divorce can refer to a disagreement on anything, including grounds for divorce, child support, visitation rights, debt incurred before the divorce, or even the divorce itself. When a spouse contests a divorce, he or she needs to file documents explaining the issue and his or her side of the argument. The documents then need to be examined before a judge who will make a determination on the final outcome.
UNCONTESTED DIVORCE
An uncontested divorce can make for less hostility and less time in court, especially if the divorce is handled by an experienced uncontested divorce attorney. The couple has already agreed upon parameters within the divorce decrees, and they must simply file the paperwork and begin the divorce proceedings. Most of the time, uncontested divorces only take a few months to conclude. Uncontested divorces are always encouraged by the court so couples can avoid disagreements and litigation in the future.
However, reaching even an uncontested divorce settlement can be challenging. Divorces have many components that need to be worked out individually, some of which can be just as complicated as they would be in a contested divorce. A competent divorce lawyer can help clients reach agreements in all aspects of divorce.
