Divorce and Separation Help in Pasadena
Thinking about divorce and not sure where to turn for help? There are some ways the Pasadena divorce attorneys at The Law Offices of Donald P. Schweitzer can help.
Why get a divorce?
You may think that if divorce is so complicated, why bother? Why not just split up? For the family lawyers at the Donald P. Schweitzer Law Offices, this is not a philosophical or theological question; it is a legal question, and they can give you a good answer.
It is possible that spouses could agree to live apart, and often, one spouse does simply leave the family home. Two wage-earning adults with no children may believe their marriage is no one’s business but their own. However, marriage or registered domestic partnerships are legal institutions in the State of California. If you cease to live as married people or as partners, you will put yourself –and perhaps your children-- in a potentially expensive and distressing legal limbo. Will your spouse keep a promise to provide support? Will your spouse let you see your children? Who will file state and federal taxes? Which partner will pay for family health insurance? How are retirement plans shared? What if you want to re-marry? The Law Offices of Donald P. Schweitzer can help you find answers to those questions.
Why not do it yourself?
If you look at the forms required to file for divorce, and if you read all the regulations about how those forms are filed with the clerk of court after they have been filled out, you will probably be able to answer this question yourself. Divorce is stressful; you should not carry any burden alone. It is not necessary; the divorce attorneys at the Law Offices of Donald P. Schweitzer can help. They not only know what and how and when to file, they can prevent costly mistakes.
