Most of those who file are concerned about efficient and effective divorce strategies in Louisville. Many Kentuckians attempt to handle a divorce on their own and file without representation to save some of the cost.
Family Law Fact #1: less than half of those who initially file their cases for a divorce in Louisville without an attorney are able to complete the process on their own. Unfortunately, this often results in the necessity to take a lot of time off of work and in the evening to pursue correct processes and paperwork, as well as additional expense. This often ultimately results in both parties retaining an attorney to get the case moving forward toward resolution and completion.
If you are concerned about the cost of a divorce and the time it will take to complete, the answers lie in 2 specific realities: the number of issues on which the parties do not agree and their ability to ultimately resolve these disagreements and the underlying issues. When the two parties are in complete agreement regarding every aspect of their uncontested divorce, it is cost-effective and efficient for our skilled team to prepare required documents that capture the agreement between the parties resulting in a practical path to a completed divorce.
Family Law Fact #2: Most divorce cases in Louisville have at least a few areas of substantial disagreement between the parties. The parties are often unable to negotiate a resolution in these matters. The most common issues involve child custody and visitation, child support, maintenance / spousal support or the division of marital property including retirement and pension assets or a closely held family business or professional practice.
