Getting a divorce is filled with unpleasant and uncomfortable moments, none more so than determining custody of the children involved.
The divorce will change the children forever and it is imperative that some sense of stability and comfort be established by the final custody agreement.
At The Law Offices of Michael Catalanotto, PC, we are determined to help clients minimize the pain for their children by reaching that custody agreement as painlessly and as quickly as possible.
However, there are many factors that go into determining custody, and we will work with both parties to discuss whether or not the two parents have already come to some sort of working custody agreement that could stand up in court as well as the needs of each child, the stability of each parent and the stability of the environment to which the children are accustomed.

Mediation is often recognized by unhappily married couples as the easier, less contentious and less expensive way to get a legal separation and/or a divorce.
And while this can be the case, it is also true that mediation proceedings should be handled by skilled lawyers so that they go as smoothly as possible and that couples avoid time- and cost-consuming hiccups along the way.
A poorly handled mediation can cost a couple as much or more than a divorce.
The staff at the Law Offices of Michael Catalanotto, PC not only has the experience to handle mediation but also realizes what a difficult time this is for estranged couples and will work with both parties to reach an agreement that is satisfactory for each person.

A prenuptial agreement is one thing an otherwise happy couple would prefer not to discuss in the months leading up to a wedding.
However, reality dictates that people of all ages and income brackets at least consider a prenuptial agreement.
As of 2008, 40 percent of all American divorces end in marriage.
And at least one spouse is embarking upon remarriage in 46 percent of marriages as of 2008.
With those statistics, it would be foolish for a couple-particularly one comprised of at least one previously divorced spouse-to not look into a prenuptial agreement to protect both parties.
