Divorce Litigation (with a Lawyer)

Having an experienced timesharing (child custody) attorney by your side makes the litigation process much easier. A divorce lawyer in Putnam County can outline a strategy and timeline, giving you clarity about what to expect. For instance:

  • Although litigation typically costs more than mediation, a timesharing attorney can help you navigate complex issues, provide advice on risks and benefits, and explore settlement options. This increases the chances of a favorable outcome and justifies the added cost.
  • While you retain control over the key decisions, your attorney’s role is to provide legal guidance and strategy. In the event of a dispute, the judge will make the final ruling if your spouse refuses to cooperate.
  • In Florida, mediation is required to help resolve conflicts peacefully, but in cases of abuse or extreme conflict, litigation may be necessary. Your attorney will protect you by limiting harmful communication in these situations.
  • Divorce attorneys understand the emotional burden of divorce. If no agreement can be reached, trial may be necessary. We believe that litigation is preferable to settling for less than you deserve.
  • The hostility in divorce often comes from unresolved emotions, not the legal process itself. While reconciliation isn’t always possible, family counseling can be beneficial, especially for children, who are vulnerable during divorce.
  • Divorce should not be seen as a contest. With clear goals and a strong strategy, we can help you achieve a solution that empowers you.

Whatever your reasons, our attorneys are here to help. Schedule a consultation today.

Why You Should Choose Mediation With An Experienced Divorce Attorney

Having an experienced timesharing attorney on your side provides a clear strategy, a goal-focused plan, and a structured timeline. Although mediation without legal representation might appear less costly, fixing poorly crafted agreements can be far more expensive. Here’s why:

  • Without an attorney, you don’t gain more control over the process
    If your spouse is pressuring you to attend mediation alone, they may be trying to manipulate the outcome in their favor
  • Mediators, unlike attorneys, are neutral and cannot advocate for your rights or ensure that you receive a fair settlement

The best way to protect your rights is by having an experienced child custody attorney guide you through the process.
