Massachusetts Divorce Attorney

When your marriage is over and the road ahead is paved with uncertainties, you need an experienced divorce lawyer to navigate the potholes for you.

No one gets married thinking they are going to end up divorced. Unfortunately, about half of all marriages end in divorce. In Massachusetts, the divorce process can be complicated, challenging, and emotionally draining. If you are facing a divorce, it’s important to hire a competent divorce lawyer and attorney to advocate for you and help you start a new beginning.

Depending on the issues and personalities of the involved parties, the process can be straightforward or difficult. Key issues that are agreed upon are memorialized in a contract called a Separation Agreement. Issues that are not agreed upon, are decided by a Judge through a trial. Some of the most common key issues that must be addressed through the divorce process include:

• Child Custody & Support
• Property Division
• Spousal Support

Massachusetts is a no-fault grounds state meaning you can get divorced even if your ex doesn’t want a divorce. Although the ex can’t prevent a divorce, he/she can complicate the process significantly.
