Divorce Topics
Separation: Although Virginia does not recognize “legal separation,” you should take certain steps when it becomes clear you will be separating. It is a serious mistake to move out of the home without a temporary written agreement in place. In some cases, couples find that a separation can be a time to work on rebuilding the marriage, rather than continuing with a divorce. The date of separation may affect the date of your final divorce decree.
Child custody and visitation certainly are at the heart of many divorce settlements and disputes. We will help you find a solution that reassures your children about the future of their relationships with both parents.
Child Support, Alimony, and Property Division are difficult issues to work through. Determining the value of assets, future needs, and earning potential of each party is a complex process.
Your rights: Parents, spouses, children, and grandparents all need to be concerned about their rights in the event of divorce.
Property Settlement Agreements
Protect Your Children ▪ Your Property ▪ Your Dignity
It is a mistake to accept a settlement that doesn’t adequately protect your relationship with your children or your economic rights. Our divorce lawyers will work with you to reach a resolution that protects you, your family, and your future.
Collaborative Divorce ▪ Divorce and Beyond
We will help find the least antagonistic and most economical solution that protects your rights. We help couples in simple uncontested divorces by drafting agreements that legally establish their intent, assist couples who hope to reach agreement via mediation or collaborative law techniques, and when that is not appropriate, are determined advocates of our clients in court.

Wills, Trusts, Prenuptial Agreements, and Estate Planning
We will draft agreements to protect your financial future. Often a divorce changes your family structure so that a new will, trust, prenuptial agreement, or estate plan is needed.
At your first consultation we will counsel you on your options and provide you with literature that describes our firm’s services.
For a consultation about your legal needs, contact our Chesterfield or West End law office and make an appointment to meet with an attorney.
