Family Law & Divorce Attorney in Nassau, Suffolk & Queens Counties

While it is true that the gender-based dynamics of divorces has been changing, statistically speaking, in the majority of cases the man is still the primary breadwinner and the woman the primary caregiver. Issues such as custody, equitable distribution, and spousal support must be evaluated in separation agreements or divorce matters. This is especially true in households with two working parents or other unique arrangements.

There is less certainty for women in this day and age; therefore, retaining a qualified, experienced, and compassionate lawyer is a necessity. The Virdone Law Firm, P.C. can advise you from the outset about what to expect and how to best proceed not only with the end of marriage matters already mentioned but issues relating to nuptial agreements, domestic violence, high net worth situations, and orders of protection.
