How much does it cost to get a divorce?
The cost of a divorce is determined by the issues of each individual case.  It is important at all stages of your case to be mindful of the potential expense involved.

How much child support will I have to pay, if any? How is this determined?
Child support is determined based on a formula set out by statute. This formula uses factors including the number of minor children, income of both mother and father, cost of health insurance for the children, cost of daycare, etc. Many equitable considerations are involved in setting child support, and it is important to have an experienced attorney involved who understands these legal issues such that an appropriate amount of child support is determined under the  circumstances of the case.

How often do I need to update my will?
Your will should be reviewed by a licensed attorney and updated any time there has been a significant change in your personal life or financial situation. A significant change may be the death of a beneficiary, marriage, divorce, or a move to a different state. Have your attorney review your will at least every five years to ensure that it is consistent with current laws.
