Divorce

Compassionate Guidance Through The Divorce Process

A divorce is a life-changing event with far-reaching personal, financial, and legal consequences. At Reade Law Firm, PC, a knowledgeable and experienced family law attorney can guide you through the legal process, helping you know what to expect at every step.

Divorce is often a very emotional undertaking, but we can help place you in control of the situation. We can assist with all aspects of negotiation and litigation throughout the divorce process in Massachusetts, including:

  • Child custody: We can negotiate each parent’s legal custody rights and formulate a parenting plan that is in the best interest of your children.
  • Property division: We can help ensure that all of the property and debt acquired during the marriage is distributed equitably during divorce.
  • Alimony: If alimony is included in your divorce settlement, we can help you understand how courts calculate the amount and duration of alimony payments under Massachusetts law.
  • Same-Sex Divorce: Same-Sex divorces often involve particularly complex legal issues, even with same-sex marriage legal nationwide. We help LGBT individuals navigate the relatively new landscape of same-sex divorce, including child custody issues.

Advocacy Focused On What Matters Most To You

We develop very close relationships with the clients we represent. We will learn what is most important to you and work hard to protect it during your divorce. We will also seek to understand the needs and goals of the other party to form a strong overall strategy for the case.
