Contested or Uncontested

Contested Divorce

The smartest thing you can do at this time is hire an attorney with a proven background in protecting your interests, and more importantly, your children.

Experienced, Understanding and Aggressive Divorce Lawyers

When you are facing a legal separation or divorce, your life is in turmoil. You are unsure of what the future holds and the steps you must take to protect yourself and your children financially, emotionally, and physically. You may be concerned about custody issues and the division of assets. You may be the victim of domestic violence and in need of a protective order. One thing you do know is that you need excellent legal counsel to fully protect your rights and interests. The attorneys at The Mandel Law Firm can be that counsel for you. Conveniently located in midtown Manhattan, just around the corner from Grand Central Station, our office is easily accessible by rail or car from each of the five boroughs of New York City, as well as Westchester and Nassau Counties.

"Integrity and results go hand in hand."
-- Steven J. Mandel, Founder

When you come to us, you can be sure that we will take care of your financial, as well as emotional needs. In fact, clients value our services so highly that when we draft prenuptial agreements for them, they often specify in the agreement which spouse may use our firm in the event the couple later divorces.

Whether you are facing a friendly, uncontested divorce or a contested divorce involving disputes over the division of assets, custody of the children, maintenance/alimony or other issues, we can guide you through the process. Our attorneys are both skilled courtroom litigators and effective negotiators. We can represent you in Supreme court, Family court or guide you through mediation.

We Help You Move Forward

The decision to end a marriage is one of the most difficult and wrenching you will face. Seeking advice from a knowledgeable domestic relations attorney, as early as possible, will go a long way toward preserving your long-term financial and emotional health as you move toward a new future.

Many clients have turned to us when they faced a domestic relations issue, including the principal of a preeminent studio in NYC for whom we obtained sole custody of his three children, television, film stars and major sports figures, as well as other lawyers and even judges. In fact, sometimes a former opposing client will seek out our firm, years after losing a case to one of our attorneys, to retain us in connection with an unrelated matter, so impressed were they by our performance in our past victory against them.

We can help you establish or modify spousal support or maintenance, post-divorce issues, marital property issues and domestic abuse. We will work hard to resolve issues short of litigation, but if it is necessary to go to court, be assured that we will be fully prepared to aggressively represent you every step of the way!

FREE DIVORCE MAGAZINE

To help you through your divorce, complimentary copies of New York Divorce Magazine are available at our office. Divorce Magazine provides individuals and families who are going through the transition of separation and divorce with information, support, and guidance.
