Common Divorce Challenges

Divorce proceedings can be emotionally taxing and complex, largely depending on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. In an uncontested divorce, both parties agree on all major issues, such as child custody, support, and property division. This type of divorce tends to be quicker and less costly since it involves less court intervention.

On the other hand, a contested divorce occurs when the spouses cannot reach an agreement on one or more issues. Contested divorces require more extensive legal intervention, including court appearances, and typically involve a longer timeline and higher expenses due to the need for mediation, negotiation, or litigation to resolve disputes.

Common disputes divorcing couples face:

• Child custody arrangements and parenting schedules
• The equitable division of assets and debts
• Business ownership and valuation
• The division of retirement accounts and pensions

At The Meyers Law Group, P.C., we understand how difficult the divorce process is, emotionally and practically. Our Nassau County divorce attorneys strive to help every client through the process as smoothly as possible. From helping you understand how New York divorce laws may impact your case to advocating for you and your family during a custody dispute, we are here to help.
