CONTESTED DIVORCE LAWYER ALBANY, NY
In New York State, a contested divorce may be the only option when you and your spouse are unable to reach an agreement on essential terms of the divorce, mainly:
(1) equitable distribution or division of assets and debts;
(2) custody of minor children;
(3) child support;
(4) payment or waiver of spousal maintenance; and
(5) payment of attorneys fees.
A contested divorce may be required to ensure that your rights are upheld and that you receive what you genuinely deserve, even if it can be time-consuming, stressful, and more expensive than other methods of resolution. The contested divorce process is also advisable if one spouse fears that the other spouse is hiding assets or not reporting their actual income. Additionally, and most importantly, a contested divorce is necessary if you and your spouse have minor children and there are concerns about the well-being of your children.
Contested divorces can be complex, especially when significant assets are involved or one party has a significantly greater income than the other spouse. Andrew H.

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul, like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy.
I feel that I never was a greater artist than now. When, while the lovely valley teems with vapour around me, and the meridian sun strikes the upper surface of the impenetrable foliage of my trees, and but a few stray gleams steal into the inner sanctuary.
