We make divorce easier.  Our attorneys understand the process.  They have a combined experience of more than 50 years doing divorce in Southern Utah.  In a way you could say we have been there and done that when it comes to divorces. We have handled divorces where there were almost no assets up to divorces involving CEOs of significant national corporations.

 

The Process

In Utah, the divorce process starts out with someone filing a petition for divorce and serving that on the other party. This petitioner and summons require an answer. After the answer, the court sets some deadlines.  These deadlines involve the exchanges of financial and other information.  Utah requires mediation. Mediation is a wonderful tool to resolve divorces. We work hard to assist our clients in a mediation process. We have learned that if everyone agrees to something in mediation several things take place. First, compliance is higher. Second, the costs are down significantly from what they would be if the matter went to trial. Third, if there are kids involved it generally allows them to move on with their lives sooner rather than later after an extensive court battle between the parents.

 

We Can Help

Divorce is never easy. We have found that if we can work hard and gather the necessary evidence we are able to assist our clients in getting satisfactory resolutions to their cases. We strongly believe that mediation is the best way to resolve a divorce.

 

Avoid Expenses

If we are unable to resolve the case at mediation, and there are kids involved, generally the next step is to do a home study or custody evaluation. A home study can cost in the neighborhood of $5000. They take anywhere from 60 to 120 days and involve a deep dive into your personal lives by a therapist.
