Child Custody Lawyer Serving Milford, New Haven and Throughout Connecticut
The Law Offices of Lee Marlow assists clients with a wide variety of divorce concerns, involving:
- Simple divorce. When divorcing spouses can settle their financial and child-related issues out of court, or have few issues to settle, a divorce can proceed quickly and easily. Attorney Marlow has worked with many clients to obtain clean and speedy divorces.
- Complex divorce/high net-worth divorce. When divorces involve children, or complicated assets such as family business interests, retirement funds and real estate, we can work to untie the legal knots. Using forensic accountants and other financial specialists, we can help you demonstrate which assets should be yours to keep. Further, we have an understanding of the tax implications of divorce, and we can advise you accordingly.
- Military divorce. When military members divorce, there are often special considerations involving jurisdiction, assets, children and military retired pay. Locally, Attorney Marlow has represented service members at the Naval Submarine Base New London in Groton, Connecticut.
- Negotiated/mediated divorce. Attorney Marlow is a skilled negotiator who can guide his clients through negotiations and mediation proceedings. He has been appointed by Connecticut courts to serve as a special master, during which he has given recommendations on custody, asset division, alimony and child support to divorcing couples as part of a pretrial proceeding.
- Asset division. In Connecticut, assets must be distributed equitably in a divorce. However, what is equitable to a court may seem unfair to you. With the help of asset valuation and business valuation experts, Lee Marlow helps you negotiate or fight for your share of marital assets, as well as to protect assets that are important to you.
- Marital agreements. Marital agreements, also known as prenuptial agreements or separation agreements, depending on when they are created, can reduce the potential for conflict by setting mutually agreed upon conditions for asset division, child care and other issues. Attorney Marlow is skilled in drafting marital contracts to resolve matters.
Attorney Marlow can also assist you in obtaining an annulment, in attending divorce-related hearings regarding child custody, child support or alimony, or in pursuing a modification or appeal of a court order.
A Word About Negotiation / New Haven Divorce Lawyer
Although in-court litigation may be unavoidable in a divorce, the most satisfying outcomes, both financially and emotionally, often come through negotiation or mediation.
There is a simple reason for this: Once a judge becomes involved in your divorce, your fate is no longer your own. If you and your soon-to-be ex-spouse can resolve important issues without resorting to a court trial, you can often achieve an outcome that is less expensive financially and emotionally, and better suited to your needs, and those of your family members.
