This isn’t a 'get to know you' meeting where we talk in circles. Your first consultation is a strategic planning session where we:
You leave with a clear roadmap. Even if you decide not to engage us, you’ll understand your position better than when you walked in. Most clients make a decision to proceed on the spot. Not because we pressure them—but because they finally have clarity.

85% of family law matters settle before going to trial. But settlement doesn’t mean rolling over.
We negotiate from strength:
Your case is built from day one as if it’s going to court—comprehensive disclosure, expert valuations, strong evidence. When the other side knows we’re prepared to litigate, they negotiate seriously.
We draft strategic proposals that protect your position while creating pathways to agreement. When mediation occurs, you’re represented by lawyers who understand leverage points and know when to push and when to compromise.
Most importantly: We don't settle just to settle. Every agreement must meet your core objectives or we continue to the next step.
When negotiation fails—when the other party is unreasonable, dishonest, or putting children at risk—we litigate decisively.
You’ll always know what’s happening, what it costs, and the realistic range of outcomes. No surprises.
Divorce ends your marriage legally. That's it. It doesn't divide your property. It doesn't determine parenting arrangements. It doesn't resolve child support. Those are separate legal matters that run on their own timelines.
Q: Do I need my spouse's consent to divorce?
A: No. Divorce can be granted on a sole application. Your spouse will be notified, but their consent isn't required.
Q: How much does divorce cost?
A: Court filing fee is $1,125. Our fixed fee for divorce applications starts at $3,500 including preparation, filing, and court attendance if required.
Q: Can I remarry after divorce?
A: Yes, 31 days after the divorce order is made. Many clients have new partners and need certainty about remarriage timing for planning purposes.
Smart timing matters. While divorce is separate from property and parenting, coordinating all three often produces better outcomes:
We map the strategic sequence that best serves your goals.
Discuss Your Divorce TimelineYou're not legally required to have one, but separation involves significant financial and emotional decisions. Getting advice early can help you avoid costly mistakes and position you for the best outcome. Even a single consultation can give you clarity on your rights and next steps.
