Frequently Asked Family Law Questions
We hear a lot of the same questions coming from clients. We want to answer a few of the most asked questions and give you a head start on understanding the legal process.
Q: How long will a divorce take?
A: There is no sure-fire way to predict how long the divorce process may take. Several factors can influence the length of the process, including scheduling court dates and how amicable both parties are in solving problems. Couples with substantial assets or challenging custody issues may find that the divorce process takes longer. It can take months, or even years, to fully resolve a divorce case. However, those opting for mediation or arbitration may have their divorce settled in a matter of weeks.
The point is that no two cases are alike. If you want a more accurate estimate of how the process of your divorce will take, consult with a skilled Holmdel family law attorney today.
Q: Do I Need an Attorney If My Spouse and I Are Handling the Divorce Amicably?
A: Yes. You may agree on all the fundamentals, but it still takes an experienced attorney to help you prepare the legal paperwork. Even when you are both on the same page, it is always a good idea to have an attorney review the terms of your agreement and ensure that you are treated fairly.
Q: Do You Handle Child Custody Cases?
A: Yes. Divorce doesn’t just impact you and your spouse. All family members, especially children, can be impacted by the dissolution of a family unit. At Law Office of Andrew A. Bestafka, Esq., we are particularly sensitive to the needs of those who may not have a voice but need protection. We want to work with you to find child custody solutions that meet your needs and the needs of your children.
