Divorce & Family Law
Whether you are a resident of Waterford Township or from the surrounding area, divorce can be one of the most stressful periods in your life. Unlike other areas of civil litigation, neither party “wins” in a divorce. The family members all lose something when a complaint for divorce is filed. Our law firm’s divorce lawyers know the judges on the Oakland County Family Court bench. We are skilled in facilitating child-related issues and strive toward a fair property division. This enables you and your family members to move-on with your lives with dignity and peace of mind.
Usually, the public courtroom, although sometimes necessary, is not the preferred venue for the sensitive issues involved in a divorce. Our divorce lawyers know when to present evidence to the court, and when it is simply best to negotiate a privately arranged settlement. Either way, we will approach your family law case from a position of strength that comes from our extensive experience in this area of law.

- divorce
