Manhattan Divorce Attorney

The attorneys at Roman & Associates, PLLC will work to develop the best possible solutions for all aspects of your divorce, which may include:

• Child custody and visitation — Court orders determine where your child will live, how parenting time will be split and to what degree each parent gets to make decisions about their child’s life. We will work to ensure your parental rights are protected while advocating for your children’s welfare.
• Child support — A number of factors are used to calculate child support payments, from each parent’s income to each child’s particular needs. We will seek an order that’s fair to all parties.
• Distribution of property — The division of your home and other assets often depends on whether property is owned by a couple or by just one spouse. We will help you seek a fair division of the marital estate.
• Division of marital debts — Both spouses may be accountable for debts accrued by the couple, or one partner may be found to be more responsible.
• Spousal support and temporary support — Whether you seek spousal support, also known as alimony, on a permanent or temporary basis, or must pay it, our attorneys will seek a fair determination so that divorce doesn’t leave you financially strapped.

With commitment and conviction, we argue for fair arrangements, always keeping in mind your best interests and those of your children.

Effective Family Lawyers Handle Mediation and Litigation

The course that your divorce takes will depend on your circumstances. Most couples will first try to work things out in mediation rather than opting to let a judge decide the terms of their divorce. Mediation gives you and your spouse the opportunity to negotiate a divorce settlement in a structured setting through a trained facilitator, in a process that fosters cooperation and removes the unpredictability and uncertainty of litigation. It also often reduces the time and cost of divorce, and puts the decisions in your hands.

If litigation is necessary to reach just and equitable resolutions to alimony, custody and other matters, our skilled litigators are prepared to advocate on your behalf in court in pursuit of the most favorable outcome.
