Child Custody and Financial Support

In any divorce, spouses must eventually reach mutually-acceptable agreements concerning complicated issues. Emotional disputes related to child support, child custody or visitation rights will hinder your ability to reach thorough, yet flexible parenting and visitation plans. Divorce lawyer Joy Y. Frank will assist you in reaching agreements that protect your parental rights as well as your financial future. She does this by using a variety of dispute resolution methods ranging from mediation and collaborative divorce to litigation, to achieve your goals.

Business Interests and Property Division

Whether you have no assets to fight over in a divorce or you have significant property holdings, an experienced and caring family law attorney can help you protect your rights and meet your goals. Divorce lawyer Joy Y. Frank has been assisting people from diverse cultures and economic backgrounds facing complicated and simple divorce-related disputes for more than 13 years. Where complex property division is an issue, she partners with outside appraisers and business evaluators to calculate the accurate value of her client's marital estate and its distribution.

To ensure that your rights are fully protected, you should seek the counsel of a divorce lawyer who understands and empathizes with what you are going through. Furthermore, if you are concerned about how a divorce will impact your business and your financial future, you also need an attorney savvy enough to handle the complex issues involved in property division. A wide range of assets need to be properly valued and equitably distributed in the event of a divorce. These include:

  • Real estate holdings
  • Business valuations (particularly difficult for smaller, family-owned businesses)
  • Stock incentive plans
  • Overseas investment accounts
  • Deferred compensation
  • Asset and brokerage accounts
  • Executive and director compensation
  • Pensions, IRAs, and 401(k)s and other retirement benefits
