If you are considering divorce, you undoubtedly have concerns as to how the divorce process works and how the future of you and your family will be affected.

With the help of an experienced divorce lawyer, these emotional and complex issues can be addressed both efficiently and effectively.

Divorce Does Not Have To Be Contentious

Divorce can bring out the worst in people, but it does not have to cause undue conflict and acrimony. Our approach to divorce disputes is to reach favorable, amicable resolutions by negotiating from a position of strength. We understand, of course, that the other side is not always willing to be reasonable.

We prepare every case for the possibility of trial. Firm principal David N. Schaffer is an accomplished trial attorney, but he strives to keep cases from going to court to spare his clients unnecessary time, expense and worry. When trial is necessary, he is always prepared. In fact, David’s philosophy has always been that settlements most favorable to his clients are the direct result of thorough and detailed trial preparation. David’s adversaries know very well that he is not afraid to go to trial, if necessary.

David N. Schaffer believes that the divorce process does not have to start out contentiously, and he always encourages his clients to begin the process that way. But if the other side insists on heating things up, David subscribes (strictly figuratively, of course!) to the “Chicago Rules.” To paraphrase Eliot Ness:
