Nassau County Divorce Lawyer
Jonathan E. Kroll & Associates, PLLC is proud to serve the residents of Nassau County in all of their divorce and post-divorce needs. Nassau County is a suburban county on Long Island, immediately due east of New York City. As of the 2010 census, Nassau County was home to 1,3339,532 residents, of which 63.10% were married couples that were living together. In a 2012 Forbes magazine survey, residents of Nassau County were found to have the 12th highest median household income in the country and the highest in all of New York State, which means high-net worth divorces are common for those living in Nassau County.
Our firm handles all aspects of divorce, as well as issues that arise after the divorce has been finalized such as, post-divorce enforcement actions, orders of protection and divorce modifications. Divorce law is known for being one of the most sensitive and volatile aspects of law, and this is understandable when you consider that people's assets, family-owned businesses, and relationships with their children are often threatened by the consequences of divorce.
Our firm has been representing clients in their divorce proceedings all throughout Nassau County since 1994, and we are entirely committed to providing personalized and caring, yet aggressive legal representation on behalf of our clients and their best interests.
Divorce Representation in Nassau County
While we are proud to represent all of our clients in their divorce proceedings, we often handle cases involving high-net worth. Considering the fact that Nassau County is one of the wealthiest counties in the nation, it's safe to assume that many of our clients are faced with critical issues over the laws of equitable distribution. It's important to note that although New York uses the "equitable distribution" standard for dividing assets, it doesn't necessarily mean equal distribution by any means.
Each case is handled on a case-by-case basis, and so are issues over spousal support. Since each divorce case is handled differently by the courts and because there is no set standard for dividing property as there is in community property states such as California or Nevada, it's vitally important to have an attorney representing your best interests in a divorce matter, and as your attorney, we take matters pertaining to the distribution of your assets very seriously, as do you.
There are many issues that people face in a divorce, and the longer you've been married and the more assets you and your spouse have accumulated, the more complex it is. We understand that there are many stressful issues that are associated with the divorce process, and we are well aware that the outcome of your divorce proceedings will certainly have an impact on the rest of your life.
All too often people are hesitant about filing for divorce because they are afraid of losing their money or worse, they are afraid of losing their children. Please, don't let concerns over child custody & visitation or marital asset division bar you from seeking out much needed legal advice. We are extremely knowledgeable of New York State laws as they pertain to equitable distribution and child custody; therefore, we will arm you with the information you need to proceed with caution and reason. We know that you have a lot to lose if things go wrong and this is why we are so adamant about protecting our clients' rights and looking out for their best interests from start to finish.
Our clients come from all different types of backgrounds and situations. We have clients that are dissolving a marriage of very short duration, as well as marriages that have lasted for ten, twenty or more years. If you are a victim of domestic violence and are in need of an order of protection, we can assist you in the process. These situations are extremely time sensitive, especially if there are any child witnesses or victims to the abuse in question. We can also assist clients with their paternity claims; once paternity is established it affords a father rights and responsibilities towards his child and this includes the responsibility of providing financial support as well.
