A BETTER LIFE
If you are thinking about a divorce, you need an experienced and genuine divorce attorney. David will explain the benefits of taking the high road and the pitfalls he has witnessed as an attorney from people that did not.
During a divorce, emotions can be intense. Feelings of anger, fear, loss, sadness and frustration are common. Too often, these emotions can lead to high levels of conflict and stress that are unnecessary. A sensitive and experienced divorce lawyer will help their client deal with these feelings and work with the other side to find fair and reasonable resolution in a civil manner.
As you go through your divorce, there will be times when you will be faced with choices that will require you to give a little bit or stand firm on principle; offer an olive branch or fire off a scathing letter. It’s usually better for the client, and the whole family, to first explore options along the high road and to resist the temptation to engage in destructive and expensive conflict.
Experienced divorce attorneys will tell you that the angriest people end up hurting their own interests. They will drag out everyone’s pain by their refusal or inability to see the issues from another perspective. David knows how judges will look at the issues in your case and can help generate a resolution that avoids high levels of conflict.
“One of the first things he said to me was ‘I don’t do big, nasty fights. If the gloves come off, I can fight with the best of them. But let’s just make this fair and reasonable, and everybody gets out of this with the least amount of damage.’ And I really like that.” – Harrison Family Law Client
THE FIGHT FOR JUSTICE
In some cases there is no choice but to fight and to fight aggressively. David has tried many cases involving complicated financial issues and full blown custody disputes. If the other side’s demands are unreasonable or unfair, if they harm his client or his client’s children, then David knows how to present the case in court. In the vast majority of cases, though, he is able to help his client resolve the case without courtroom battles. If you take the high road, when you look back on this time you will feel good about the choices you made.
While no two cases are alike, every divorce involves pain. Even an amicable parting can be emotionally exhausting. What’s more, healing can only begin after resolution. Several factors can stand in the way of resolution, prolonging pain and adding expense. Hidden agendas. Manipulation. Unnecessary complications. The truth is that our court system does not always provide personal vindication. It was designed to resolve disputes.
That’s why, as a divorce attorney, David works to minimize conflict. Clearly communicate. Cut through clutter. Protect children. Streamline the process. And shepherd clients so they arrive at reasonable, mutually acceptable results as quickly as possible. When called for, he will stand up to bullies and fiercely defend your interests. However, misplaced conflict has diminishing returns.
As your divorce attorney, David’s goal will be to make everyone’s quality of life better. His clients. Their families. And, whenever possible, even his client’s ex-spouse. Only then can everyone move on. Contact us today to find out how he can help bring resolution to your situation by filling out the form below, or calling us at 248-295-4116.
