A Roadmap Through the Divorce Process

If your divorce is contested, it is not unusual for the case to take several months to resolve. Typically, it may take some time to discover all of the marital assets and liabilities of both spouses in order to prepare for final hearing or to prepare a comprehensive settlement agreement. If custody is an issue, a time-consuming — and sometimes costly — custody evaluation may be warranted. There may be sporadic or consistent conflict between the divorcing parties, which in turn may lead to anxiety and emotional upset. Sources of conflict that lead to divorce may include infidelity, substance abuse, domestic abuse or violence, financial disagreements and parenting conflicts, among many others. An experienced divorce law firm such as Freedman Law, P.C. can help you to understand and to cope with the emotional challenges that inevitably result from the breakup of a family or household.

In uncontested divorce cases, Freedman Law will advise you about different approaches to working with your spouse to negotiate the division of your assets and any issues relating to child custody, child support, emancipation, parenting time and/or paternity. In contested divorce cases, the Fishers, Indiana-based Freedman Law, P.C. will typically attempt to negotiate with your spouse’s attorney. Our experienced family law attorneys will plan the final hearing and if necessary, will gather testimony and evidence from expert witnesses and other third parties. This evidence can take many forms including appraisals, medical records, school records, employment records, etc., as well as live witnesses. Freedman Law, P.C. will use the information gathered to prepare for any hearings or settlement negotiations in your case. Once there has been a final hearing or you have reached a settlement agreement, you and your spouse will receive the final decree which typically covers property division, child custody, parenting time, child support and other important issues.
