At Joseph A. DeWoskin, P.C., Attorney at Law, we usually suggest that our clients try to reach a divorce settlement agreement out of court. Although we know that there are situations in which this isn't always possible, we find it is best if the couple is able to decide for themselves how to handle property division, support issues and parenting time.

If our attempts at settling the case prior to trial through hard work, negotiation and mediation fail, we will represent our client aggressively in the courtroom. Contact Joseph A. DeWoskin, P.C., Attorney at law for hard working, disciplined legal service.
