Divorce is a legal and emotional turning point. Our attorneys help clients file for and complete contested or uncontested divorces, offering support with everything from property division to spousal support and parenting agreements.
We handle the equitable distribution of marital property as outlined in 23 Pa. C.S. §3502, ensuring all assets, real estate, businesses, pensions, and investments are fairly addressed. Spousal support, including alimony pendente lite (APL) and post-divorce alimony, is handled under 23 Pa. C.S. §3701, with solutions based on each client’s financial circumstances and goals.
We work closely with parents to build custody arrangements that are in the best interests of the child under 23 Pa. C.S. §5328. Whether you’re starting from scratch, modifying an existing order, or navigating co-parenting conflicts, we help craft legal solutions that reflect the child’s needs and each parent’s role.
We also represent parents in relocation cases, emergency custody petitions, and situations involving special needs, safety concerns, or communication breakdowns.
We help parents determine, modify, and enforce child support obligations based on Pennsylvania’s guidelines in 23 Pa. C.S. §4321. Calculations include income, childcare, health insurance, and other factors specific to your family.
Additionally, we represent individuals seeking or contesting spousal support, providing clarity around obligations during and after separation.
We assist clients in preparing clear and enforceable marital agreements, including prenuptial and postnuptial contracts, that define asset ownership and financial expectations. These are especially helpful in second marriages, blended families, and high-asset situations.
All agreements are drafted in compliance with the Pennsylvania Uniform Premarital Agreement Act, protecting your rights and reducing future conflict.
