New London Divorce Lawyer
The divorce process is an experience you can walk away from feeling that your rights were protected, you have understood your options and your attorney has obtained the best possible result on your behalf. At the Law Office of Kenneth A. Leary, we believe in providing this type of legal representation to our clients who are going through divorce. We represent clients throughout southeastern Connecticut as well as out-of-state clients who have family law issues in Connecticut.
Protecting individuals' rights and futures since 1972
Attorney Kenneth A. Leary can readily assess the method that will be most advisable for each client given their specific situations. He is skilled in reaching divorce decrees and divorce settlement agreements through mediation, negotiations and litigation. Mr. Leary places an emphasis on getting to know his clients, helping them understand their options, giving honest assessments on what can be expected and working vigorously to obtain the best possible result. Important decisions will need to be made regarding your future, your children and your finances. Contact us for help with your divorce and the following issues:
- Child custody - If you are a parent experiencing a divorce, you probably have many concerns regarding the care and custody of your children. We provide strong advocacy for parents and consistently proceed toward outcomes that consider the best interests of the children.
- Property division - In Connecticut, property, assets and debt undergo an equitable distribution. An equitable division of property does not mean a 50/50 division of property. Our firm can protect your rights and ensure your marital contributions are properly considered.
- Child support - Child support in Connecticut is calculated by statutory guidelines. Factors that are considered in the calculation include each parents' income, time spent with the children, special educational needs and health insurance.
- Spousal support - We represent people who will be paying alimony and those who will be receiving it. We are dedicated to obtaining fair determinations of alimony on behalf of our clients.
