New York Divorce Lawyer
Ehrenzweig has handled more divorces then you can imagine. It is important to know that in New York the Courts look at several factors when determining custody, maintenance, and child support. You need a strong attorney behind you to make sure you protect your assets and get a fair judgement. Ehrenzweig has successfully negotiated settlements and won cases wherein a cop needs a cop to protect his/her assets.
Although not always successful, a good attorney should be able to convince the other side that a deal be made to allow the cop to protect his/her entire pension. Doing so is admore advantageous to both parties than a full blow trial which could cost in excess of $40,000 in legal fees. Naturally the cop gives up certain claims to marital property. Child support is by statute, no matter what any person states, the Courts must follow the statute (exceptions can however be made under certain circumstances, and parties can “opt out” of the child support statute as well). When it comes to pensions, and the rest of our retirements benefits there are strategies that can be implemented.
For the sake of past, current and future clients I may not reveal such strategies on a public forum. Needless to say, if you are a cop, you need a former cop to represent you in a divorce. Learn More
