Under the best of circumstances, divorce is a stressful process. When couples litigate issues before a judge, the emotional toll and the expense increase exponentially. Fortunately, there are ways to simplify your divorce and reduce costs while still achieving your goals for the future. For many couples, mediation or collaborative divorce are useful tools for removing impediments to a settlement on important issues such as child custody, child support, spousal support and the division of marital property.
Attorney Ferrante has the knowledge and skill to guide you through the mediation or collaborative divorce process toward a mutually acceptable, cost-effective resolution of your most difficult divorce issues. The outcome is based on your intimate knowledge of your family rather than the limited evidence a judge reviews. You're afforded greater privacy due to the confidential nature of non-adversarial divorce processes, whereas court hearings may be public.

She was sensitive to our needs and respectful of our situation.
