Divorce can be stressful

Legal issues surrounding your marriage and family can often be the most stressful type of legal issues. Not only are you facing significant time and money expenses as well as the stress of having to deal with the court when working through these issues, they are centered on the most intimate areas of your life. This is why you need a divorce attorney who is not only experienced and driven to succeed, but compassionate and sensitive to your needs.

In the vast majority of cases that settle, the key differences as to why they do is because of the experience that your attorney has; their reputation for being knowledgeable of the law; their ability to read the nuisances of each party involved keeping in mind their motivation for acting a particular way and their reputation for being tough in a courtroom should a settlement not be reached. In sum, you must always negotiate from a position of strength but do so professionally and consistently so that other parties and their attorneys know that you speak from a position of knowledge and authority.  That’s why I settle more than 95% of my cases at mediation.
