Divorce is more than just dividing your money and time with your children. It should be more than trying to assert power over your spouse through an adversarial system. At its core, divorce is about grief, loss and transformation. Divorce will transform your identity and your relationships. What that looks like is up to you. When considering a divorce, the most important question is which approach should we use? Kitchen Table, Mediation, Collaborative Divorce or Litigation.
At the Law Office of Nanci A. Smith we offer:
What to Expect

H.B.
Divorce can often be a terrible experience, and if a custody battle is involved it can be horrendous. Having worked with numerous lawyers, Nanci was the only one who was willing to fight for a fair resolution. She explored all options and didn’t give up. I wouldn’t think twice about hiring her again, and highly recommend her.
