Q. What are the most common mistakes people make when filing for divorce in NH?

A.  Many fail to meet with an experienced divorce attorney before the NH Petition for Divorce is filed. The time for planning is before the divorce petition is completed. New Hampshire law prohibits parties from doing a list of items when a divorce petition has been filed. This list is mandated by the Court.

   The emotion turmoil caused from going through a divorce prevents people from acting objectively. Those that come to the Law Office of Richard E. Clark agree the first meeting is the most important. Attorney Clark analyzes a long list of factors to assess his client’s situation and exposures. The strategy starts before the divorce is filed. If you have been served, the time to seek legal advise is now.

    Most also don’t expect to go through financial trauma. Meeting an experienced divorce lawyer will help you in resolving complex financial issues. Some include spousal support, permanent alimony, health insurance, child support, mortgage payments and car payments.
