Even an amicable divorce or separation can be extremely difficult for the parties involved. The difficulties surrounding a separation can be compounded by a client's lack of understanding of the law and its process. Consequently, Montford Family Law emphasizes client education, throughout our representation, to provide our clients a clear context in which to make critical decisions that will affect not only our clients' individual best interests, but also the best interests of their respective families as well. Whether a client's issues are resolved by private agreement between the parties or by an order of the court, our office firmly believes that there is no substitute for proper preparation of our clients' cases. Our clients' situations are individually investigated, analyzed, and prepared for an equitable settlement. We encourage collaboration and mediation to reach settlement; however, if it becomes necessary, we have the experience and tenacity required to expertly litigate your case in the court system. Throughout our process, each client is fully involved with the development of his or her case plan, and remains promptly informed on the frequently changing status of his or her case.
