Divorce can get very complicated, which is why it’s important to have a Staten Island Divorce Attorney when moving forward with a divorce.

As a Staten Island Divorce Lawyer, we have guided clients through the process of divorce and annulment. The length of time and involvement varies on a case-by-case basis, because there are different assets and emotions for each couple. There are a lot of things to be factored in divorce including family, assets, funds, length of time in the marriage, possessions prior to the marriage, and anything related to inheritance.
