Let Brabazons Experienced Green Bay Divorce Lawyers Help.</h1></p> <p class="textStyle"> Going through a divorce can be very complicated and emotionally difficult. The results of your case can have long lasting effects on your life, your finances, your family and your emotions. The <strong>Green Bay divorce lawyers</strong> at Brabazon law Office are experienced in handling all phases of this complex legal process. Our divorce attorneys understand that tensions and emotions often run high and you are often left feeling confused and frightened when the process begins. Brabazon Law office is committed to educating you about these complex issues so you can make knowledgeable decisions regarding specific options available to you in your case. Our attorney’s understand the complexities of Wisconsin divorce law.</p> <p class="textStyle"> Wisconsin is a “no fault” divorce state. This simply means that either party may start a divorce proceeding and no reason needs to be given. Because this is a “no fault” state, the divorce will be granted even if the other spouse does not consent to being divorced.</p><h2><strong>Why You May Need The Help Of Our Green Bay Divorce Attorneys</strong></h2> <p class="textStyle"> When looking at getting a divorce, there are many aspects to consider. How will the divorce settlement be structured? Who will draft the divorce settlement agreement? Are there spousal support or child support enforcement issues to be considered? Are their children involved where Wisconsin child custody laws need to be considered?</p> <p class="textStyle"> Many people attempt to avoid the cost of hiring an attorney by going through the process unrepresented or “pro se”. While this is an option in some circumstances it can often be a mistake. Our Green Bay and <strong>Appleton divorce attorneys</strong> offer free initial divorce consultations which can be of great assistance in educating you about complexities of a divorce. After you have educated yourself and learn the pitfalls of being unrepresented you will be better equipped to decide whether you wish to retain an attorney. <p class="textStyle"> A divorce is initiated by the filing of a Summons and Petition for divorce in the county of residence. Wisconsin has a mandatory 120 day waiting period before a divorce can be finalized, although in certain cases it can be much longer. Often there is an immediate need to protect assets, set up a placement schedule for the children and to begin spousal or child support. In these cases the Wisconsin divorce lawyers at Brabazon law Office will file a request for a Temporary Order Hearing. This motion hearing is typically scheduled a few weeks after the motion is filed and can be one of the most important parts of the entire divorce proceeding. In addition to determining who is responsible for marital expenses while the divorce is pending and setting support, the court can make important determinations such as who gets use of the marital home and which school the children will attend. These “temporary orders” can have long lasting effects that can steer course of the entire divorce. The experienced Green Bay divorce attorneys at Brabazon law office will advocate for you at this hearing and fight for your best interests.</p> <p class="textStyle"> As a divorce proceeds it is important to communicate with the other party to exchange information and attempt to work out a stipulation also called a <strong>Marital Settlement Agreement</strong>. Whether you end up with a stipulation or a contested divorce trial full disclosure of all assets and debts is absolutely necessary. If you believe your spouse is being dishonest regarding values of property or is hiding assets, our divorce attorneys at Brabazon Law Office can initiate a formal discovery process. This process involves interrogatories or depositions which require the opposing party to comply with discovery requests under oath.</p> <p class="textStyle"> If a Marital Settlement Agreement can not be negotiated a trial or contested hearing will be necessary. We always try to avoid this step if at all possible, but the experienced Wisconsin litigators at Brabazon Law Office will aggressively advocate for you best interests should a trial be necessary.</p> <p class="textStyle"> Our Divorce Attorneys practice not just in the Green Bay, Brown County area. Our experienced Divorce and Family Lawyers will aggressively represent your interests in any county throughout the Fox Valley and Northeastern Wisconsin. We have experience practicing divorce and Family Law in De Pere, Appleton, Oshkosh, Fond du Lac, Sheboygan, Manitowoc, Kewaunee, Sturgeon Bay, Neenah, Menasha, Marinette, Shawano, Waupaca and Wausau.</p> <p class="textStyle"> When you need a law firm that understands what you are going through when getting a divorce, visit or contact us at Brabazon Law Office to schedule a consultation with one of our Green Bay or Appleton divorce attorneys by calling today at <strong>1-800-596-0691</strong> or using our contact form.<br /> </p> </td> </tr> </table> </td></tr> </table> <table width="922" border="0"> <tr> <td height="6" background="../images/footertop.png"></td> </tr> <tr> <td height="87" valign="bottom" background="../images/footerbg.jpg"><div align="center" class="footerText"><span class="style3"><br /> <span class="style4">Brabazon Law Office, LLC P.O.
