We will cover the grounds for Divorce, how alimony and child support are calculated, how assets and debts are divided up, how the Court decides custody disputes, use of Divorce Mediation to keep legal fees under control, and much more! If you are considering divorce or separation, you don't want to miss this Workshop! Call(718)979-5200 now to reserve a seat! We practice all aspects of Divorce and Family Law in Staten Island, and the other Counties of New York and in the New Jersey Courts and upon request, in the Florida Courts. Both Litigation and Mediation services are offered in the area of Divorce, Legal Separation, Paternity, Pre-Nuptial, Property and/or Parenting Agreements, Child Support and Alimony, Domestic Violence actions, Custody, Interstate Custody and Child Abduction, Family Court and Appeals. Our firm also practices Collaborative Divorce for those clients who wish to utilize this dynamic new way of resolving their marital problems! Our Law Firm concentrates on Family Law Issues, thereby achieving a depth of field and an extensive base of experience. Many of our clients are referred to us by former clients as well as lawyers and mental health professionals, both in New York and New Jersey and elsewhere, who know and trust our work. Our office represents clients from all over the United States in the New York and New Jersey Courts, and in the Courts of the State of Florida. Low up-front retainers While many divorce attorneys on Staten Island require an up-front retainer of between $5,000 and $15,000 on all divorce cases, we only require an up-front retainer of just $3,000 on any case that we accept which is not yet in litigation! Yes, even if you and your spouse have a business, or millions of dollars in assets, the initial retainer is only $3,000, provided the case is not yet in litigation! We believe that most cases can be settled quickly and inexpensively by negotiation, rather than litigation! Obviously, if Court litigation is necessary, the initial retainer will be higher. We will give you a definite retainer quote at the initial consultation so there will be no surprises! A Message to the Client about our Divorce Practice When you retain us as your attorney, we will discuss the law with you, and how it relates to your situation. We will listen to you and we will develop realistic expectations and a plan of action. We believe that negotiation is frequently the most prompt and efficient means of reaching your goal. However, if settlement is not possible, we will pursue your case aggressively and effectively. For the duration of our representation, our office will keep you current on the status of your case. We will provide quality and experienced representation from start to finish. About Our Firm Our Law Firm was founded by attorney William J. Leininger in 1981.
