Contested Divorces

A Contested Divorce simply means that you and your spouse do not agree to the divorce or more specifically, to the terms of the divorce. However, since New York State has introduced “No-Fault Divorces,” it is almost a guarantee that a divorce will be granted, however, it is important that the terms of the divorce be resolved in a manner that protects you and your children. RCM Law Offices has a wealth of experience litigating issues regarding asset allocations or property divisions, child custody, child support and visitation.  We are also excel in our negotiations techniques which we employ throughout the litigation process, this often helps resolve matters more amicably and efficiently, rather than having to go through a trial.

Uncontested Divorces

Un-Contested Divorces mean that you and your spouse have agreed to divorce without any objections to the terms set. The first step in initiating an Un-Contested Divorce is finding legal representation which your comfortable with. RCM Law Offices has years of experience allowing parties to dissolve their marriages in a speedy manner with as little hassle or stress as possible.

No-Fault Divorces

Since 2010, New York State has made it relatively easy to obtain a divorce. A newer type of divorce known as a “No-Fault Divorce” simply allows one spouse to obtain a divorce without proving fault on the part of the other spouse. You’ve probably heard the fancier terms in the media regarding celebrity couples. These include phrases like “irreconcilable differences” or “irreparable breakdown of the marriage.” With this new law, it’s made divorce a much easier and a far-less ugly process to go through. We have experience in providing married parties with no-fault divorces.

Child Support & Child Custody

RCM Law office are fully knowledgable and have a complete understanding of New York State child support laws. Although the law can be complex at times and may have limitations, the general rule is that the non-custodial parent will pay a percentage of his or her income to their children. Whether your attempts to collect have been met with resistance or you need to work out an agreement, we are available for all matters related to child support.

Although the legal system and courts may not always guarantee you the outcome you were looking for, its our primary goal to establish a fair custody agreement with as little emotional or financial stress as possible. Child custody law can be complex depending on your situation, we can’t be any more upfront to you than when we say that RCM Law Offices’ lawyers will be with you every single step of the way. The most clear way to look at this is through three phases. These include assessment of your personal situation, implementation of our plan, and post-case events involving visitation. We have a vigilant and compassionate team in place to help setup an agreement which is as fair as possible to both parties.

Alimony or Spousal Maintenance

Spousal maintenance also known as Alimony is basically a payment made from one spouse to the other. Married people are responsible for the support of their spouses and may end up being responsible for paying a specific sum deemed by the court. Like child support, the maintenance amount is decided based on a number of factors besides the married person’s income. There are different forms of Alimony in New York State which may be known as “temporary maintenance” or “Post-Divorce/Permanent Maintenance.” Although the court is the final deciding factor on whether there will be a payment and what that amount should be, rest assured that our team will be with you every step of the way for assistance.

Pre-Nuptial Agreements

A PreNup, sometimes known as a “premarital” or “ante-nuptial” agreement are all pretty much the same thing. It’s a legally binding agreement that helps a couple establish rules over property, debts, income and expenses. We recommend them because in the event of a divorce or separation, it will inevitably make the entire process go by in an easier fashion. However, most couples don’t use them. If you really think about it, it almost feels unnatural. Many couples feel its as if your giving up on your marriage before it’s even begun. Although it’s not the most romantic thing in the world to do and it’s rare, more and more couples are using prenups to protect themselves. RCM Law offices has extensive experience in drawing up these legal contracts so both persons can remain happy and feel safe in the event of a separation.
