In family law, individuals are frequently seeking advice at a time in their lives when they are facing a major relationship change. The break-up of a marriage may make a person uncertain as to where he or she would live and whether there will be enough money and resources to maintain the individual in the future. Through a divorce proceeding, these issues can and should be raised so that both parties can feel confident that their needs are being address. If a marriage is irretrievably broken and a divorce complaint is filed, the court may grant a decree in divorce. For advice on your personal situation, contact Shirley A.
