Let Our Family Law Attorneys Help Your Family Through Difficult Times

The majority of families need a family law attorney’s help at some point in their lives. It may be something relatively straightforward, such as a basic prenuptial agreement, or as complex as a contested custody battle. In either situation, it is important to have an experienced, knowledgeable attorney on your side to give you legal advice.

Families have returned to us throughout the decades when they have needed Massachusetts family law counsel. Your family can rely on us, too. Contact us for a free consultation about your family law needs today.

Whether You Are Starting Or Ending A Marriage, Our Family Law Attorneys Can Assist You

We are experienced family law attorneys who understand the financial, legal and emotional aspects of divorce and custody. You’ll find that we will take the time to listen to you and take your case as seriously as you do.

We represent clients in all areas of Massachusetts family law, including:

Are you going through a divorce and bankruptcy at the same time? We have experience with these types of cases and can handle the divorce and the bankruptcy filing for you. There’s no need to hire a separate bankruptcy lawyer.

Are My Spouse And I Required To Disclose All Assets During Divorce?

Yes, disclosing all assets in a divorce proceeding is required for both parties. You will each fill out a financial statement that covers debts, assets, expenses and income, if any. If you are concerned that your spouse may be hiding or wasting assets, you should tell your lawyer immediately. Working with experts in areas such as forensic accounting, we can determine whether your soon-to-be ex is not being truthful about their assets.

How Should I Prepare For Divorce?

Gathering all of your financial information and records is a good first step. If there is anything illegal happening, such as hiding assets, it is best to address it as soon as possible. Your financial information will also help us determine whether you will need to pay or receive alimony.

You should also think about what property is worth fighting over and what you can let go. The longer a couple argues over property, the more expensive and time-consuming the process will be.

Contacting an experienced divorce lawyer is also a crucial part of the process. We recommend that you do this as soon as you can. We can answer your questions, dispel any myths or faulty advice you may have been given and when possible, file for divorce before your spouse does.

Let’s Talk And See What We Can Do For Your Family

By learning your story, we will be able to provide you with options and advice about how to move forward in a manner that’s right for you.
