Divorce

Divorce is one of the most difficult situations you will face in your lifetime.   In a perfect world, all parties would agree to the details of this life-altering conclusion to marriage. Divorce affects the entire family, and when stress levels rise, the ability to think clearly often diminishes.  Because of this, it’s difficult to trust someone else to effectively and accurately represent you.  That’s why the attorneys at Evert & Jaramillo offer a free initial consultation, to answer your questions and allow you to make a wise choice regarding your legal representation.  Together we can map out a strategy that addresses your concerns and desires regarding the outcome of this process. 

Child Custody and Support

The laws regarding child custody and child support can be complicated.  Let us help you navigate through this difficult time. We explain your legal rights, and your legal obligations, as a parent.  Together we will devise a plan focused on achieving your goals. When it comes to your children, experienced, solid legal representation is key.

Prenups

Some believe that entering into a Prenuptial Agreement is admitting that your marriage will fail before you’ve even had a wedding.  But consider that setting the financial expectations of the marriage in the beginning, can be beneficial to both parties.   Assets are protected, and the uncertainty surrounding the future is removed.  Both parties are able to enter into the marriage without worry or concern about what might happen in the event of a marriage dissolution.  People purchase health or auto insurance, hoping to never need it, but at peace knowing that it’s there if something happens.  A prenup can be viewed similarly.  It may be difficult to talk about “what if” before the happiest day of your life, but it is important.  At Evert & Jaramillo, we will work to ensure all parties are comfortable with the final product.
