Tips for Conducting Yourself in Divorce Proceedings
Going through a divorce can be an extremely emotional and frustrating process for you and your family. It is easy to let your emotions, your fears, and your anxieties get in the way of successfully negotiating the terms of your divorce. Not only can this result in a divorce trial that is longer than necessary, but it may also cause further damage to you and your family. At Gille Kaye Law Group, PC, we want to help you understand that your conduct can make a tremendous difference in the finalization of your divorce.
Our primary Pasadena attorney, Christine Gille, is board certified in family law, which means that she has an expertise that few firms can offer. She has seen numerous divorce cases go wrong because one or both of the spouses could not collaborate in a productive and amicable nature. She understands the difficulty of the situation you are facing, and wants to give you the resources you need to get through the divorce as painlessly as possible.
