Z.G. Najdovski. Esq. is a trial lawyer first and foremost. He was hired out
of law school by Martin Clearwater and Bell in their Litigation Department,

If you are faced with a spouse in Court who wants nothing less that to impose
upon you a bleak future of unrelenting and unconscionable monthly alimony payments
running into eternity, or you are faced with a husband who has forgotten your
input into the marriage, then you will need a lawyer who is first and foremost
trial ready, as well as shrewd and humane.
Most
divorce cases end in a mutually agreeable settlement
by the parties with the help of their attorneys
who assist in negotiating their respective
positions. When spouses cannot come to a settlement
agreement with respect to property rights,
alimony, child custody and visitation, and
so on, their case is then litigated in court.
The
issues of property division, right to a divorce,
maintenance, and custody are then decided by
a Justice of the Supreme Court of the State
of New York. Should you wish your case to go
to trial, not obtaining an experienced trial
lawyer is probably the single worst mistake
you can make. A zealous lawyer who will have
the time and resources to prepare you, prepare
your witnesses, and prepare you documents and
trial exhibits is crucial before trial.

experts, evaluation of license experts, private detectives, and psychologists,

hears from all witnesses from both sides, admits into evidence documents from
both parties, and takes into account any applicable statutes, rules and precedent
cases, it will rule on the various issues to be decided.

Relocation
of the child with the custodial parent after
the divorce is finalized should be another
are of concern to the non-custodial parent.
Even more emotionally taxing than litigating
in court over who should have custody and who
should have visitation (yes, New York Courts
still use that word) is when the custodial
parent wants to relocate with the child. What
are the non-custodial parent’s rights? |
