Divorce
Divorce and dissolution are virtually the same thing in
New Mexico, but in severe economic times, such as we
suffer today, sometimes a legal separation may turn out to
be a reasonable alternative in order to protect a person’s
healthcare coverage or resolve other issues when assets
are severely limited. Our office has handled nearly 400
divorces, and experience is important with efforts to
resolve property, debt, and distribution of assets issues.
Your property and debts must by law be fairly distributed,
and the many factors include income disparity, debt
structure, retirement accounts, and separate property.
Family Law
Few aspects of life prove more gut-wrenching and painful than divorce or
dissolution of marriage. At jeopardy is a person's feeling of self-worth,
opportunity. These risks also apply, not just the husband and wife, but also to
children, close relatives, and friends. You have committed your time and your
financial future to your marriage and you will benefit greatly from having a
clear-thinking, experienced lawyer protecting your interests at each of the many
critical stages.
As your private attorney, Mr. Samore and his office works individually with each
client to balance these concerns, present your case effectively, discover the
critical information your opponent may have, and better protect your future.
Contact him for a free case evaluation and legal help.
Every year we have several new cases that turn out to be unresolved issues that haunt a
person, previously divorced, because they have gone to the cheapest attorney they could find
or even tried to do the documents themselves.
Unresolved issues return to haunt them, including undisclosed debts, lack of health
insurance, or vague child custody terms. Get it done right the first time.
Our office has represented over 350 clients in matters of divorce, child custody, child
support, spousal support (alimony), and property division. The decision regarding whom
will represent your interests, financial future, and your children's future, is one of the most
important you will ever make. Consider not just estimates of cost but also your comfort level
with your legal representative. It is always difficult to estimate legal expenses at the
beginning of a case, since so much of the potential cost depends on the willingness of the
participants to work together and compromise. If it becomes impossible to resolve
differences cordially, Mr. Samore is very experienced in presenting clients' cases to the judge
at trial. Remember, in New Mexico and all states, a divorce or child custody case is
presented only to a judge, not to a jury.
