Family Law Overview

Katz, Manka, Teplinsky, Graves & Sobol, Ltd.

Divorce with Dignity - Defending Rights for Family Law Clients for Over 50 Years

Except for the death of a spouse or loved one, the emotions you will experience at the loss of a marriage are some of the most devastating you will ever encounter. Many times, these emotions make it difficult to work through the issues of crafting a parenting plan aimed at protecting your children's best interests, as well as resolving the often times complex financial issues of separating one economic unit into two, allowing both husband and wife to divide your finances, and providing for your future lives apart from one another. We understand these issues both from a financial and emotional standpoint. While initially, the fear is protecting oneself both personally and financially, ultimately, finances boil down to math and equity, and we excel from both a business and financial standpoint at getting the math done right and achieving a fair and equitable result - with the goal of allowing both parties to walk away from the process with dignity and positioned to move forward with the assurance of a brighter financial and personal future.

For over fifty years, the lawyers of Katz, Manka, Teplinsky, Graves & Sobol, Ltd. have made their name through preparation - putting in the time and effort needed to identify all facts needed to protect your children and to fairly and equitably identify and value your assets. We excel in cases involving complex financial issues, such as those arising from the ownership of family businesses. We tirelessly will analyze financial statements, tax returns, banking records and other documentation to assure such assets are completely and fairly valued. We leave no stone unturned to make sure all property is fully and fairly accounted for. We utilize the best business valuation experts and accountants as needed to value family-owned and closely-held businesses, analyze marital income and spending, and determine accurately the standard of living you and your spouse have enjoyed during the marriage so as to preserve that standard of living into the future. This expertise is applied just as zealously for each of our clients, even those of lesser financial means. Our attorneys also have background in psychology and child psychology, and truly understand the difficult issues needed to protect children and protect their best interests, preserving as either a mother or father your ongoing relationships with your children.

While we are zealous advocates in the courtroom, our goal is to try to resolve, where possible, the disputes arising through the breakdown of a marriage with civility and dignity, with the goal of reaching a fair and amicable settlement for our clients. Such settlements are possible when all facts are thoroughly and completely investigated and analyzed. With our help you can be assured we have maximized the probability that your entitlement to a full and fair settlement will be fulfilled.
