Marital Settlement Agreements

Decisions made during the divorce process can have significant and far-reaching consequences in almost every aspect of a person’s life. Complex issues must be evaluated and resolved, including child custody, spousal/child support, and equitable distribution of marital property, including division of retirement assets, investment accounts, and real property, as well as allocation of debts and liabilities.

Spouses can negotiate and enter into a marital settlement agreement prior to or during a divorce proceeding without ever stepping foot inside a courtroom. Our specialized knowledge and litigation practice in the complex field of family law enables us to achieve the best possible outcome based upon the specific facts of your case.

A Marital Settlement Agreement, also referred to as a Property Settlement Agreement is an important and effective tool to avoid the hardship and costs associated with protracted divorce litigation. A martial settlement agreement is a legally binding contract spouses can enter outlining their property rights and responsibilities following their divorce. If litigation cannot be avoided, or a dispute remains as to part of the overall divorce or domestic matters, we will work tirelessly to protect your interests while remaining pragmatic to protect your wallet.
