DIVORCE
Strong and Compassionate Representation.Divorce is a part of our culture. It’s a part none of us want to experience, but sometimes it’s our only choice. Sometimes it’s not even our choice but our partner’s choice. It’s an emotional time of upheaval, change, endings and yes, even new beginnings. The legal team at Heritage Family Law understands what you’re going through and what you need to build a brighter future for yourself and your family.
Let’s Talk About The Basics
In Washington, one spouse must begin the process by either filing to separate or divorce. If both of you agree on everything and there’s no conflict about property, children or anything, the earliest the divorce can be finalized is 90 days from the date of filing.
Often though, finalizing a divorce means separating assets, selling property, creating a parenting plan, and so on. Of course, most divorces take longer than 90 days, and many can take much longer. Then, if everything can’t be worked out, there’s a trial, where a judge will make the final decision for you.
Family Law Is A Complicated Part Of Our Justice System
Our job is to make sure you get a fair resolution that protects you, your property, and your children, with the least amount of damage possible. Fighting for the sake of fighting is never a good thing. We’ve seen couples spend thousands of dollars to fight over a $2.99 Christmas ornament they bought at Target the year before. At Heritage Family Law, we’ll buy you ornaments before we let you waste money like that. In this trying time, you need to be able to count on your attorney to bring the fight when necessary and to negotiate for you when it’s not.
