Attorney Kathleen Bartlett

A divorce is a way to terminate your marriage when the parties do not agree on various issues, such as: division of their assets and debts; allocation of parental rights and responsibilities; and spousal support. To commence a divorce case, one spouse will file a “Complaint for Divorce” in the local court, and the other party will be served with a copy of that Complaint. During the pendency of the divorce, the parties and their attorneys will negotiate and attempt to resolve any outstanding contested issues. However, if they are unable to do so, a judge or magistrate will decide those issues following a trial and the presentation of evidence.
