How do settlements get negotiated or challenged?
Settlements are negotiated between parties, often with attorney assistance. Unfair agreements can be challenged in court.
What if only one spouse’s name is on an asset (business, property, etc.)?
Ownership in one name does not automatically make property separate. We review your facts and advocate for your interests.

Generally, property acquired during marriage is marital property and subject to division, but exceptions may apply.
What are my rights if my spouse is trying to keep all assets in a marriage settlement agreement?
You have the right to fair division of property. We review settlement proposals and negotiate or litigate as needed.
How are assets divided if the marriage was short, but the parties are elderly?
Property division considers many factors, including marriage length and contributions. We can advise you on your unique situation.
Does a co-signer or co-owner have legal rights to a vehicle/property if they didn’t pay for it?
Legal title can confer rights, but courts may consider who paid in dividing assets.
How are jointly titled assets, like cars or homes, divided if only one party paid for them?
Jointly titled property is generally considered marital property, but contributions and other factors may be considered in division.
Will the court consider my new job if I switch to a lower-paying one?
The court may consider recent employment changes. We can help present your circumstances to the court.
