Matrimonial Law (Divorce)


When two people decide to get a divorce, it isn't a sign that they 'don't understand' one another, but a sign that they have, at last, begun to.
— Helen Rowland, English-American writer (1875-1950)

Often stressful and sometimes overwhelming, divorce is rarely a short and straightforward process. The complexity of divorce can stem from the fact that truly important issues such as the division of marital property, child custody, and/or spousal support must reach resolutions.
