A trial to resolve your marital disputes can be very expensive, and few people end up happy when they are paying more in legal fees than they are receiving from the divorce. You are better off settling out of court especially if you do not have children or have not been married very long. In these cases, a dissolution of marriage may be the best option. Be amenable to mediation and settlement to resolve marital disputes.
However, after assessing the pros and cons of your case, and the economic impact of litigation, it may be necessary to resolve marital disputes by a trial before a court judge or magistrate. These cases typically involve children or parties with sufficient assets and/or income.
I know this sounds complicated. The attorneys at Bailey & Gunderson can help you decide which option (mediation, settlement or litigation) is best for you.
Not every case or issue has to be litigated, but when litigation is necessary, we can help you prepare and present your issues in a professional manner to the court.
