Posted June 23, 2017 by matthewsmatthewspc

The Denver-based legal firm offers its assistance to divorcing couples through modifications and marital agreements.

 
[Denver, 06/23/2017] – Lewis and Matthews, P.C. recognizes the complexities of marriage dissolution. Couples have to make difficult choices. Their unique circumstances, from married with kids to married by common law, can compound such choices.

The firm explains, “The separation process is not the same for every couple. For instance, couples married under common law are considered legally married without actually going through the traditional marriage process.”

Protecting Best Interests

Lewis and Matthews, P.C. says that couples need to discuss a list of issues with an experienced Denver lawyer. The legal consultation aims to prevent further complication and enable both parties to come to a fair and binding agreement.
One area to cover is finances.

According to the law firm, the court will evaluate both parties’ income in deciding spousal support or maintenance and child support. Judges consider relevant factors in considering the maintenance amount and its duration. These factors include:

• Duration of the marriage
• Financial resources of the party seeking maintenance
• The ability of the spouse to provide maintenance
• The standard of living established during the marriage

Other issues to cover during a divorce are division of property, allocation of parental responsibilities, and, if it applies, protection order.

The Right Strategy

Divorce attorneys also play a critical role in post-divorce actions. Colorado law allows couples to file for changes in parenting plan, child support, and maintenance.

The law firm remarks, “The results of the court’s decision may seem unjustified, and portions of the final divorce settlement might not work out as expected. If there is a need to change something in your divorce agreement, there are scenarios in which this would be allowed. Lewis and Matthews will help you find the right strategy to get the modifications and appeals you want.”
