FORT MILL DIVORCE ATTORNEYS

ROBERT J. REEVES

Mr. Reeves is an experienced trial attorney with over twenty-eight (28) years of litigation experience. But whether it is civil court, criminal court, or family court, the process and approach remain the same. As a result, we prepare every case thoroughly for trial. However, in many situations, cases can be resolved through negotiation or mediation. Because litigation is stressful and expensive, we stand ready to reach an agreement if the other side is reasonable. Of course, you make all important decisions about your case.

While we can tell you what to expect generally, every case is different. Consequently, unexpected things always come up. And when they do, you will need to speak with us even if it is after hours or on the weekend. As a result, every client has our cell phone number and direct email address. Because we understand the stress of divorce, we know a few minutes on the phone will help. So when you need him, you can reach Mr. Reeves directly by calling 704-351-7979 or emailing .

OUR APPROACH TO DIVORCE CASES

So why is a family lawyer’s approach to divorce important? Because of professional style and temperament matter. For example, if your lawyer is brash and confrontational, you should expect a long, drawn-out, and expensive divorce. And maybe that is what you want. However, if you prefer to end your marriage peaceably and with grace, we are your firm and would be honored to represent you.

Is Your Marriage Really Over

Whenever possible, we encourage our clients to try to resolve their differences and save their marriage. While it may seem impossible, you should give your best efforts before moving forward with divorce. Of course, in many situations, this option is taken away through infidelity or learning your partner files against you for divorce. However, it is still the best course to try to work things out if you can.

Pre-divorce settlement Agreement

For those marriages that cannot be saved, we encourage you to reach an agreement on as many issues as you can. After all, everything you work out before hiring us saves unnecessary legal fees. Hence, the best-case scenario is we review an agreement, and then a York County family court judge approves it. In addition to saving legal fees, this option also makes it easier to work with your former spouse going forward. Hence, school events, graduations, weddings, etc will be less awkward in the future if you lay the groundwork now. And then you only have to wait one year for a final decree of divorce. But while you wait, all important matters are resolved so you can move forward with your life.

Choosing a Fort Mill Divorce Attorney

Sadly, roughly half of all marriages today end in divorce. While there are many reasons why it is usually cheating. However, in other cases, couples simply grow apart over the years. Perhaps we just give up too easily. Regardless of the reason, you need to know what to expect and what options are available. In addition, you want an experienced trial court litigator but a compassionate family lawyer. Consequently, your first critical decision is who to hire. So how do you decide who is the best family law attorney for you? Because so much is at stake, we first encourage you to compare different lawyers and their credentials. While websites can help, you should go further and interview several divorce lawyers. Rather than act impulsively, choose the lawyer who gives you the most confidence but also puts you at ease.
