Knowledgeable Birmingham, Alabama, Divorce Lawyer
It is critical to recognize that Alabama law provides for equitable distribution of all marital property — and that does not necessarily mean an even, "50/50" split down the middle. All marital debt must be divided as well, and this can be another key consideration as you decide how to handle your divorce.
You may know people who believe they came out of divorce with fewer assets or more debt than they considered fair. For skilled legal counsel directed at preventing this from happening to you, please contact The Oncale Firm today. You can benefit from a free, no-risk consultation with experienced family law attorney Shane Oncale.
Whether you have modest assets or your situation calls for a sound strategy to protect complex property and assets, our firm is an excellent resource. We will take a hard look at your situation and identify a practical approach to helping you reach the most advantageous property division settlement possible. If mediation or litigation is necessary, you will have a proven negotiator and trial lawyer on your side.
Basic Protection of Your Interests, or a Strategic Approach to Complex Needs
If you need someone to analyze your situation or help you ensure that the proposed division of property is fair, we can help. We can also help you get through a relatively efficient uncontested divorce and we have the experience and qualified resources to deal effectively with more challenging aspects of property division, such as:
- Obtaining accurate, current valuations of your family home, other real estate, investments (such as a 401k or retirement account), and business interests
- Proving your ownership of assets that should be treated as separate (personal) property — or locating marital assets you believe your spouse is hiding
- Proving or defending against allegations of fault that could legally impact your settlement
- Finding creative, workable solutions when it is necessary to sell your home, keep a family business intact, or "offset" one spouse's desire to keep certain property
