Both divorce and legal separation can involve legal processes, negotiations, and agreements related to financial matters, child custody, and other issues. A legal separation is when a married couple decides to live separately but remains legally married. A divorce, however, is the legal dissolution of marriage and once finalized, it’s not reversible.
On average, it lasts 18 months and it could be longer depending on the caseload of your local court.
Financial discovery refers to the legal process by which both parties gather and exchange information about their respective financial situations. This is a critical step in divorce proceedings, as it helps ensure transparency and fairness in the division of assets, determination of alimony or spousal support, and resolution of other financial matters. Financial discovery serves as the basis for the case. We offer a Financial Discovery Guide to help you navigate the process.
High-conflict or uncontested, what matters the most are the facts and evidence.
