Divorce Settlement Agreements

A global settlement in a divorce action outlines a plan for sharing time with the children, specifies the amount of support owed from one party to the other, and details how to divide the assets and debts accumulated during the marriage.

Are Settlement Agreements Common?

A tiny percentage of cases go all the way to Trial. In other words, most cases are resolved via settlement at some point in the proceedings.

This settlement agreement will impact the entire family for years to come and must be well-drafted. Do not sign any contracts without consulting an attorney first.
