Uncontested Divorce — Flat Rate
An uncontested divorce occurs when a husband and wife agree on all divorce-related issue, including child custody, child support and alimony before they go to court. Because the court does not have to make judgments on these topics, an uncontested divorce is a relatively straightforward process.
At David M. Gabriel & Associates, we handle most uncontested divorces for a $1,500 flat fee. If the parties are in agreement, a divorce judgment may be granted in as little as five weeks. Divorce in Massachusetts becomes final 90 days after the entry of judgment.
Divorce Mediation
Divorce litigation can be avoided. Mediation sharply reduces anxieties and cost, providing more control over the outcome. Attorney David M. Gabriel, a family law attorney with more than 25 years of experience, can help you develop your own agreement, which can then be submitted to the court for your divorce decree.
Complex Property Division
In complex or high-asset divorce cases, it may be necessary for us to employ business valuation experts and forensic accountants to protect your business interests and retirement accounts.
We also provide sophisticated analysis to mitigate the long-term tax consequences divorce may have on income, investments, alimony, child support and the alternative minimum tax.
Representing Non-Traditional Couples
Massachusetts was the first state in the country to recognize gay marriage — the right of same-sex couples to marry. Many issues arise when non-traditional couples, including same-sex and unmarried couples, decide to separate or divorce.
