In a high conflict divorces, there are no winners. Correction, there are the attorneys, evaluators, and counselors. Our goal is to avoid all of them, and end the conflict as quickly as possible. This often means we need to be very aggressive from the start, in an attempt to avoid being dragged deep into the system. No one can know your case as well as you. We will be there for you every step of the way. With our help you can get through this. We will do all the tedious work (See Services ). You will go into the court room well prepared and confident, with a pointed, brief, and well thought out script. Remember, by the time you enter the court room the Judge/Commissioner will have received and read, your Motion, Declaration w/exhibits, and Proposed Order.

This is one of the reasons most people hire an attorney, and of course hoping they will be looking out for your best interest. After all, that’s what you’re paying them for, right? Keep in mind know one will look out for your interests as well as you.

Example: Your ex has been withholding your children from you. You file a motion for contempt, set a court date, file all documents with the court clerk, file working copies with the Judge at least three days prior to your court date, and properly serve the apposing side, 14 to 21 days prior to the court date. But you forget to call and confirm your hearing date between 9am and noon two days before. The whole thing is thrown out, and you have to start all over again. Sound ridiculous? It happens every day. Can there be any doubt that the court is more concerned with procedure then your family? Not to mention the court relies on and considers in high regard, its list of counselors and evaluators, people like Greenberg.
