Divorce / Family Law

The legal act of ending a marriage is a challenging and difficult experience, as it means   the end of a once loving relationship. Although taking the steps to terminate a marriage can be painful, divorce may provide a solution to an unhappy and unsolvable situation.

The family law practitioners at Bergen & Parkinson, LLC work comprehensively with each family system to address the issues specific to that family’s dynamic. We fight hard to make sure that our clients receive appropriately aggressive representation with an eye toward guiding our clients through the process so they can begin the next chapter of their life as conflict-free as possible.

Our philosophy includes putting the needs of children first, while balancing the emotional and financial impact of divorce on the parents. Since the legal process in a divorce is     adversarial, our attorneys help to filter emotions, diffuse tensions and seek fair solutions.

We can assist you at the earliest stages of a divorce or other family law issue, even if you are simply trying to educate yourself on what you can expect through the process. Once a divorce is filed, we can help you with preliminary issues that might include getting physical separation from your spouse, child support, spousal support and even attorney’s fees. We offer creative mediation strategies and, if necessary, experienced representation at trial.
