Integrity and Respect in a Tough Situation
People often feel stressed — sometimes even overwhelmed — when facing a divorce and related issues. I have handled numerous divorce cases and fully understand what you are going through. Getting help from an experienced lawyer can ease your mind and, just as importantly, fully safeguard and promote your legal interests and those of other family members.
My name is Robert Segal, and I have been an attorney for 18 years. E-mail me at my office in Melbourne, Florida, to schedule an appointment to discuss your divorce. Or, call my office at 321-757-6906.
Division of Property
One step in the divorce process is dividing up your assets, such as property and financial resources. In addition to any real estate and personal property, you need to think about the separation and valuation of any retirement plans, insurance and stock options. If you own a small business, its value must be assessed also.
These are complex issues, so it's usually wise to hire an attorney to help you deal with them. I have experience with these matters and can alleviate much of the confusion you may be feeling. I also handle issues of alimony and spousal support.
When Children Are Involved
Making arrangements for your children can be stressful. I have considerable experience drafting parenting plans for clients and helping them work out satisfactory time-sharing arrangements. We can also discuss child support issues.
Special Considerations of Military Divorce
I appreciate the service of the men and women in our military. I serve many people from nearby Patrick Air Force Base and understand the needs — often singular and quite differentiated — of people on active duty. I help military members with matters concerning insurance, base access, dividing retirement benefits, housing and income.
Getting Started Is Easier When You Have Help
I strive to resolve cases out of court — using mediation (I am certified by the Florida Supreme Court as a family law mediator) and collaborative law — but I prepare every case as if we're going to court, where I command considerable experience in both state and federal venues. Call me to schedule an appointment at 321-757-6906.
