The decision to file for divorce is most certainly not an easy one to make. There are many things to think about and consider when deciding to end a marriage. Many questions will arise such as, what is best for the children? What will happen to your family financially? If you must go to Family Court what lawyer will be your best option? Divorce can stir up a world of emotions, but it’s imperative to think justly and explore all the possibilities to figure out what is best for all parties involved. To ensure that you understand all your options you will need a Staten Island attorney who specializes in the field of Family Law to help you thru all the stages of a divorce and to protect you if you must attend Divorce Court.

In Family Court divorce can be contested or uncontested. Uncontested is when you and your spouse agree on all divorce-related issues such as child custody (Split or full custody), child support, a division of property, or Alimony. There is usually no court appearance mandated with an uncontested divorce. If you and your spouse are unable to come to an agreement on any divorce-related issues, the divorce is considered contested. Contested divorce requires mediation and court intervention.
