Paying for attorneys to ensure that you get a fair settlement that protects you and your children in a Rochester divorce can seem like a high barrier to meet.
Many people stay in marriages for far too long because they worry they won’t be able to pay the costs associated with leaving the marriage, but even for stay-at-home moms, there are options that can give you access to top notch legal help.
First, understand that for a lower-earning spouse like a stay-at-home mom, judges will allow temporary maintenance (alimony) for the duration of the divorce, which makes sure you have the funds to pay your mortgage or rent, bills, and provide for your children.
In addition, judges will often assign the cost of your legal fees to your spouse, meaning that capable assistance from attorneys isn’t beyond your reach.
The attorneys at Friedman & Ranzenhofer can help you get the best possible settlement in your divorce, even if you’re a stay-at-home mom.
