Q&A
I was recently involved in a case that involved issues of trusts and estates, voluntary/involuntary underemployment, treatment of unvested stock options, and fault grounds. As the case progressed we addressed expansive requests for discovery of any and all electronic communications. We were faced with a huge number of shifting issues as the case made its way through the process. The level of hostility between the parties was reflected by the vast expanse of issues confronted.
The most challenging part of my job is educating my clients that the Court is going to view your case primarily as an economic calculation, as opposed to a decision based on the raw emotions of a martial break-up. The dissolution of a marriage is painful for everyone, and the reasons for the ultimate breakdown have a cumulative effect on each of the parties. By the time they come to see me, they are so angry, hurt and frustrated with their spouse, that they can be resistant to the fact that the Court is not concerned with the reasons for the divorce, but more with how it will equitably carve up the marital estate.
