Contested Divorce

 

 

      Divorce varies on a case by case basis. The disruption of a marriage can be painful. Emotions range from anger, to depression, to hopelessness manifest themselves frequently in clients seeking vindication through litigation. While this objective may not be practical, it is nonetheless real, and must be acknowledged and accommodated.

        Divorce is litigation oriented. It is the courts that oversee all aspects, including interim spousal maintenance, child custody, fathers’ and grand parents’ rights, relocation, support judgments, and visitation rights. We resolve these matters as early as possible to order to protect the rights of our clients and the children, and to save the client additional pain and expense.

        Divorce, separations, and annulments are matters in which quality representation is paramount. Actions must be taken to secure assets, establish custody and visitation arrangements, as well as secure necessary information for final settlement. There are several key matters that must be addressed in a divorce proceeding including:

 

Division of Property
  • Complete information must be uncovered to fairly establish the division of the community estate

The Law Office of Charles E. Andersen brings to bear the myriad skills needed in successful divorce litigation. We have a keen understanding of business and finance in order to either protect a client’s assets or alternatively to insure a spouse receives maximum share in equitable distribution. We are trained in uncovering assets, and establishing a true value for such items as professional licenses and practices, as well as unique skills which translate into enhanced earnings. Through this method, we can establish the extent and value of the marital estate, including the division of complex joint real estate, business and corporate holdings.

 

Post-Divorce

Unfortunately, even after divorce decrees become final, the enforcement of the ruling sometimes requires legal intervention. We have experience in issues such as fathers’ rights, when spouses deny fathers access to children, or grandparents’ rights, when grandparents are denied access to their grandchildren. In addition questions frequently arise relating to child custody, family relocation, visitation, alimony, and support judgments. These issues must be properly addressed to insure the rights of the client under the divorce decree without undue confrontation that would negatively impact the children involved.


 

Child Custody & Visitation

  • Protecting and securing the best interests of the children, including a safe and stable environment.

Questions concerning children are frequently the most sensitive part of any divorce proceedings. Issues of custody, child support, visitation and grandparents’ rights must be resolved. The Law Office of Charles E. Andersen will move quickly in the courts to obtain orders of protection to insure a safe environment for spouses and children, or to secure visitation when it is wrongfully denied.

Psychological insights into the needs of the children, as well as the litigant parents, is an important area of the attorney’s responsibility. Drawing from life experiences and observations of a myriad of other divorce clients, our attorneys help guide clients through this most difficult time in their lives.

 

Child Support

  • Based on the earnings and lifestyles of the parties, adequate child support must be determined.

Domestic Violence

  • When domestic violence is an issue, the spouse and children must receive the proper protection afforded by the law.
