Divorce
Setting the Stage for the Rest of Your Life
Every divorce is different.
Clients who come to us with divorce cases have a wide range of concerns, goals and needs in mind. We help everyone from people with significant assets that need protection, to spouses who simply want to move on with their lives, to people who care about nothing more than making sure they have custody of their children.
We hear all kinds of questions.
- How long will this take?
- Can we avoid an expensive and protracted court battle?
- How much will I have to pay in alimony and support?
- Can I take any immediate action to have custody of my children?
- How do I make sure I keep the house/car/etc.?
- Can this be handled discreetly?
Our job as your lawyer is to figure out what you want the answers to these questions to be, and then try to make that happen. Our philosophy is that you are the best person to decide how your divorce will proceed.
When To Negotiate
Every divorce is different.
We know from years of experience that what works with one divorce might not work with the next. That experience has allowed us to develop the skills necessary to be flexible and adapt quickly to protect your interests.
The thing that remains true most often is that when we can reach your goals through mediation or negotiation, then you're more likely to be satisfied with the results. Judges in the state of Alabama retain extraordinary latitude to make decisions about division of property, spousal support, child custody, and visitation. The only way to be sure how your divorce settlement will turn out is for us to negotiate the settlement outside of the courtroom.
When To Fight
Every divorce is different.
Sometimes, negotiation doesn't make sense. Sometimes, spouses in a divorce have strong conflicting expectations, and when that happens, we can put aggressive strategies in place to protect your assets, your rights as a parent, and your lifestyle.
At Ham & Associates, LLC, we have years of experience arguing divorce cases in front of Alabama judges. We can put our experience and reputation to work for you.
