DIVORCE

Law Office of Shawn Seliger handles contested and uncontested divorce matters in Lee, Collier, Charlotte and DeSoto Counties

Approaching a divorce is never easy, especially if children are involved. Generally, divorce involves time-sharing schedules for children, child and spousal support, and division of assets and debts. Having the right Southwest Florida Lawyer can make all the difference in the outcome of your case, both in settlement negotiations and at trial.

Florida is a “no fault” state for divorce. Generally, the courts will grant a divorce if either party believes the marriage is over, regardless of the reasons behind the breakup. Therefore, the easiest and least stressful way to get a divorce is usually through cooperation and settlement — a negotiated arrangement that can reduce the cost of divorce, offer a wider range of options, and provide control of the outcome.

If a settlement cannot be decided and agreed upon between the parties and the case has to be tried in a court of law, the court will resolve the issues and issue rulings that will forever affect you and your family. You need a seasoned divorce trial attorney on your side who can aggressively plead your case and present your position in the best possible light.
