Dealing With the Changes of a Divorce

A divorce can be both emotionally challenging and liberating to you and your family. It is emotionally challenging in the fact that family's lives are changed dramatically. Divorce can be liberating in that you have the chance to move on with your life. The Law Offices of Salvatore C. Miglore and Associates can advise you how to handle all aspects of your divorce.

Two of the biggest problems people face when going through a divorce are learning how to live on half the income they had while married, and evaluating marital assets. Attorney Miglore will advise you of your options concerning child support, maintenance, asset division, and possible dissipation of assets.

We will help you sort through all stages of your divorce. You will need answers to many questions. While we always recommend working things out during mediation or collaboration, sometimes resolving disputes about common issues in a divorce is not so easy. We help people resolve disputes over these issues.

Child Custody and Visitation: Who will get custody of my child? Am I entitled to joint or sole physical and legal custody?

Child Support: How much child support is fair? How does the court determine child support awards? What are child support guidelines?

Maintenance: Am I entitled to maintenance? Is maintenance permanent or temporary? How does the court determine how much to award?

Modification of orders: When can the court modify an original divorce decree? What orders are modifiable?

Paternity: Why do you need to establish paternity? What are the benefits of being the biological parent?

Divorces need not be contentious situations that leave families in pieces. Making prenuptial and marital agreements about asset division and maintenance before a divorce may expedite the divorce process. When possible, families should sit down and agree upon parenting plans and child custody.
