When considering divorce, one of the biggest challenges is your family splitting apart into separate households. This process takes more than simply dividing everything down the middle and calling it even, but instead, a carefully planned separation agreement. Not only will it help clarify expectations in the future as far as your role and responsibilities in the marriage, but it can lay the groundwork for a smoother divorce proceeding in the future.
The separation agreement attorneys at The Law Office of Thomas Stahl have assisted Maryland and DC families in creating a peaceful negotiation process that helps ease marital dissolution stress. Our team is eager to assist you in any way possible when transitioning away from a single family unit. We use our extensive knowledge of family law to ensure all the bases are covered in any agreement you enter into.
Separation agreements often require mediation between both parties and their personal divorce counsel, who help them settle areas of dispute to reach a divorce settlement they can mutually agree to. This phase of negotiation requires a skilled divorce lawyer who not only looks out for the best interests of you and your children but has an in-depth understanding of what makes it valid.
Even if you are willing to give your spouse everything they ask for, if the family court finds it is unfairly biased to benefit them, the judge may find it is invalid. This is especially true when it comes to matters of child custody and support. Having our highly experienced attorney by your side means that you will not have to worry about questionable provisions jeopardizing a smooth separation process.
Should you not reach a negotiated settlement, litigation may be necessary to resolve any outstanding disputes. This can cause delays in your separation and divorce process, as well as increased legal fees and additional stress to you and your family. These situations are why our firm works hard to find a mutually acceptable agreement that allows you both to move forward with your lives after marriage.
