Call for a Free Consultation (914) 332-8824 Divorce is a life altering event with great emotional and financial consequences. Whether your divorce deals with child custody and visitation, child support, property distribution, or the other issues involved in divorce proceedings, people experiencing marital difficulties which may lead to separation or divorce need an expert divorce attorney, an experienced divorce attorney who has the ability to prepare, negotiate, and skillfully present their case to a court if it cannot be settled. A divorce attorney’s first duty to you as a client will be to answer all of your questions, and to clear up any misconceptions you may have concerning the divorce process; Who will get custody of our children? What is the difference between legal custody, residential custody and physical custody? How much child support will I have to pay, or am I entitled to receive? What other types of child support have to be paid? These are all questions your divorce attorney should answer for you. Our goal is to explain divoce law to you and help you plan for the most efficient result possible. As an experienced and expert divorce lawyer, Michael D. Weinstein has been negotiating separations and representing divorce clients in litigated cases for over 25 years. He has handled divorce and related family law proceedings representing people in every phase of married life; from the teenaged couple who rushed into marriage, to the elderly couple whose case was contested, forced into trial and appeal after 50 years of marriage. He has handled inter-state custody and visitation cases, custody relocation, child support non-payment cases, post divorce judgment modification and enforcement proceedings, and argued cases before the Appellate Division of the Supreme Court. His experience as a divorce attorney and litigator is invaluable in advising clients and minimizing the potential for future problems which might otherwise be unknown to a client. Your divorce attorney should provide advice and information about each of the factors to be considered in divorce cases, regardless of whether the case is settled by negotiation, or litigated and decided in Court: what is the likely amount and duration of child support, whether spousal maintenance (alimony) will be available, legal vs. physical custody, visitation, the equitable distribution of property and debts, and determining whether any property is “separate”, and not subject to equitable distribution. Additional considerations include life insurance, medical insurance, and the payment of unreimbursed health related expenses. As an expert divorce lawyer for over 25 years, Michael D. Weinstein will provide you with all of the information you need to understand your rights and obligations. In divorce litigation, (where parties litigate their dispute in Court), there are rarely ever winners or losers, however, you need expert divorce representation to insure that you receive everything you are entitled to. In divorce mediation, or in a collaborative divorce, clients take a less combative approach in trying to negotiate the terms of the divorce and reach an agreement without the involvement of a Court. As a divorce attorney and client advocate, Michael D. Weinstein’s goal in representing clients faced with the turmoil of divorce and separation is to help guide them through this difficult process toward the next phase of their life, as fairly, and reasonably as possible, while protecting and preserving clients’ rights.
