Divorce Litigation (with a Lawyer)

The litigation process can be made more straightforward with the support of a seasoned timesharing (child custody) attorney. A divorce lawyer in Flagler County can craft a strategic plan and timeline to help you understand what lies ahead. For instance:

  • Although legal fees for litigation are often higher than mediation, a timesharing attorney can help you navigate the case’s complexities, assess risks and benefits, and consider settlement options. This increases the likelihood of a favorable result, making the cost difference worthwhile.
  • You retain control over key decisions, with your attorney offering legal counsel and strategic insights. If your spouse refuses to cooperate, the final ruling will be left to the judge.
  • In Florida, mediation is mandatory to promote peaceful resolutions, but litigation may be necessary in cases involving abuse or intense conflict. In such situations, your attorney will work to protect you by limiting communication.
  • Experienced divorce attorneys recognize the emotional toll divorce takes. If no agreement is reached, a trial might be necessary. We believe that it is better to litigate than to settle for less than you deserve.
  • The hostility in divorces usually stems from unresolved emotional issues, not from the legal system itself. While reconciliation isn’t always possible, family counseling can be a beneficial resource. It’s particularly important to protect children, who are more emotionally vulnerable during divorce.
  • Divorce should not be treated as a win-lose scenario. With a well-defined plan and clear goals, we can achieve a solution that empowers you.

Regardless of why you’re seeking divorce, our attorneys are here to support you. Contact us today for a consultation.

Why You Should Choose Mediation With An Experienced Divorce Lawyer in Flagler County

An experienced timesharing attorney provides a clear strategy, a goal-driven case plan, and a definitive timeline. While mediation without a lawyer might seem cheaper at first, revising poorly structured agreements can end up costing more later. Here’s why:

  • Without a lawyer, you don’t gain more control of the process
  • If your spouse is pressuring you into mediation alone, they may be trying to tilt the process in their favor
  • Mediators, unlike attorneys, remain neutral and cannot advocate for your best interests or ensure a fair settlement

The safest way to protect your rights is by having a skilled child custody attorney by your side throughout the process.
