Handling Contested and Uncontested Divorce
Every divorce case must be built on facts. It doesn't matter whether it is contested or uncontested. With a complete picture of the facts comes the ability to analyze opportunities and build an effective legal strategy.
Of course, facts aren't the only necessity. At the Law Offices of Richard D. Goff in Minneapolis, Minnesota, we believe that a legal strategy must be customized based on a client's needs. Our initial fact gathering session will not only involve learning about assets, liabilities and other details, but also about the unique goals that a client intends to accomplish by the end of the process. We are committed to accomplishing these goals.
With more than 40 years of experience on our side, we truly understand how to build effective divorce cases. Contact us today.
The Many Aspects of Divorce
Divorce involves a variety of overlapping issues, each of which must be considered in relation to the others. These issues include:
Our lawyers attract a professional clientele — including business owners, doctors, real estate developers and even our fellow lawyers — because of our reputation in the field of family law. These clients' cases often involve property division issues that are extremely complex, such as:
- Non-marital property
- Complex business valuation
- Professional property valuation
Our knowledge is invaluable in terms of helping clients protect their assets, their families, their futures.
The Paths of Divorce
There are essentially two paths a divorce can take: contested and uncontested.
We encourage our clients to follow the uncontested path whenever possible. Not only does this path tend to be less expensive, it is often less stressful and less time-consuming. It can be very effective, as it puts the outcome in the hands of the client, rather than in the hands of a judge.
Of course, our attorneys have been handling divorce long enough to know that settlement is not always realistic. Divorces tend to arise from disputes. Disputes may need to be resolved through litigation, following the contested path. Our family law trial experience is extensive, and we have the ability to effectively present our client's issues to the Court for a decision if necessary.
Contact us today to start down the path to a successful resolution. Our attorneys provide representation to clients in Minneapolis and the surrounding parts of Minnesota.
