Issues in Mass. Divorce
Our Massachusetts law firm can guide you through the divorce process, ensuring that that your divorce goes as smoothly as possible and dealing with issues such as:
- Child custody and parenting plans: Our law firm is adept at helping clients develop creative parenting plans that meet the needs of parents and children.
- Division of assets and debts: Judges have a great deal of latitude in deciding how property is divided in divorce if the parties cannot agree, so knowledgeable legal help is critical.
- Alimony or spousal support: Lifetime alimony, which used to be the norm, is no longer possible in most Massachusetts divorces. How long the higher-earning spouse pays alimony to the other depends on the length of the marriage, earning power of the spouses, and standard of living during the marriage.
- Child support: Child support is usually awarded based on a state-mandated formula. However, in some circumstances, the parties may agree to an arrangement that differs from the formula-based amount. Our attorney can advise you.
- Modifications of court orders: The law allows for modification of orders issued by the Massachusetts Probate and Family Court under certain circumstances. In general, divorced spouses can seek changes after a significant or "material" change in circumstances.
If the parties are unable to agree on an issue, they can use mediation, collaborative family law or some other type of alternative dispute resolution (ADR). Our law firm is able to help clients with these less expensive and less stressful methods.
