Why do I need an experienced divorce attorney in Louisville? This question is asked by the vast majority of those who seek divorce here and across Kentucky. This is evidenced by the fact that many Kentuckians attempt to handle divorce on their own, filing their own paperwork for the divorce. The lesser known fact is that usually only those with no children and few assets are able to complete their divorce without an attorney.
Why is it that the majority of divorce cases need an experienced divorce attorney in Louisville? The primary reason is substantial disagreement between the parties regarding child custody and parenting time, child support, spousal maintenance and the distribution of property. One of the parties may own an interest in a business or professional practice. How is the marital property interest in that business divided in a Louisville divorce?
