If you are considering filing for divorce, you need education now. You probably have a number of questions regarding your children, your property and your financial future, but do not even know where to begin. If you are like many people, you have never faced these kinds of uncertainties before. Your steady world that may have once been a source of comfort and confidence is about to change. Staying in control of the outcome is one of the most important things you can do for yourself right now. We can help. Wendy Prince is available to meet clients in the evening often returning from New York City. We are within walking distance from the Stamford Transportation Center.

We Empower You Throughout the Process

We offer a no-cost consultation to answer your questions about the divorce process and what you can expect in your future. This initial consultation will shape your future. The dissolution of your marriage will bring many changes for you and your family. Divorce is not just the end of your old marriage. It is also the beginning of a new future. We empower you to remain in control of that future by making sure you are educated about your options, knowledgeable about realistic expectations and confident in our experience and legal skills.

We Know What Questions to Ask, Even if You Don’t

Most people are so overwhelmed at the prospect of ending their marriages and changing their lives that they don’t know where to begin with their questions. That is where our experience and knowledge come in. Start by meeting with one of our Stanford divorce attorneys. We will get at the heart of your concerns and help you feel comfortable with the answers. Change is challenging. It takes courage to make a change.

Most people filing for divorce are unaware of the process and what is necessary for a final Divorce Agreement. Even when both spouses think they have worked out everything over their kitchen table, they may be missing items such as:

  • Health insurance
  • Future stocks
  • Retirement plans
  • Life insurance

We have helped hundreds of clients identify their issues and concerns and work through the divorce process. People are often surprised to learn that there are long-term financial consequences to their amicable agreements that will pose some significant difficulties in the years following their final divorce judgment. Many people simply don’t know what questions to ask or how to identify the many factors that go into a fair settlement, and that is where our experience makes a difference.

The Planning Process – Start With Information To Stay Empowered

When we discuss the circumstances of your divorce, we will evaluate your goals and expectations and what you expect out of a financial future and parenting plan if you have children. Some of the issues include:

  • Your contempt hearing and what documents and records you will be expected to provide
  • Whether mediation or collaborative law is right for you
  • The contested divorce hearing for matters that can’t be resolved collaboratively
  • Custody considerations, your children’s ages and their right to weigh-in on the decision
  • State child support obligations, including support for extracurricular activities and post-majority support, and college
  • Connecticut law regarding marital property and personal property and shared real estate
  • Immediate and long-term tax consequences of your property settlement
  • Retirement needs, fair division of pension and qualified retirement accounts
  • Whether spousal support (alimony) is a likely consideration, given your circumstances
  • Business valuation and division of ownership, present and future value of a cash business

How To Choose The Right Divorce Attorney?

Your selection of an attorney is the first of many important decisions you will make throughout your divorce. You will be building a relationship that relies on trust, strength, communication and flexibility. We have worked with clients – with all complexities of issues involving children and property – come through divorce with a set of realistic expectations and a firm foundation on which to base their future.

Whether you are seeking mediation or a collaborative resolution to your issues or have serious litigation matters that may require going to trial to protect your interests, we have been there before. We are proud of our reputation as aggressive, dedicated and trustworthy Connecticut divorce lawyers with a passion for what we do for our clients.
