Divorce Tips: 

Keep The Peace –  Keeping the peace between the parties can be the difference between spending a few dollars or paying off the attorney’s school loan

Don’t Move Out Of the House – The house is usually the biggest asset to negotiate.  If you’re not in fear for your safety, do not move out of the house before speaking with an attorney.

Maintain the Status Quo –   Don’t make drastic changes to your lifestyle such as buying a Corvette or cutting off your spouse from the steam of income.  Guys DON’T buy the girlfriend diamonds since you are still considered married until the judge signs off on the final order.

Keep the Kids Out of it –  NEVER use the kids as a tool to hurt the other party, and DON’T put them in the middle.   Let’s let our kids grow with the love of both parents.

Stay Off Social Media –  Don’t post anything you wouldn’t want your mother or the judge to see.  Set your social media settings to private away from public view and make sure not to delete anything once the case has been filed without the advice of an attorney.

Our Client Testimonials

Superb Law Firm

The decision to end my 25-year marriage was not an easy one, but hiring the Ramos Law Group was. From the initial consultation to the execution of the Divorce Decree everyone at the firm displayed the utmost professionalism and I was treated as if I was their only client. My attorney Lindsey, always provided precise legal guidance, was usually one step ahead of the opposing counsel, and had a superb understanding of how things would play out in the court room. Additionally, whenever my case needed a little extra horsepower, Mary provided that "surge" to keep things on track.

Worth Every Penny

"Ms. Ramos and her entire staff worked with professionalism and compassion to guide me through the most difficult time of my life and to an outcome that was best for my family and myself. Ramos Law is incredible and I highly, highly recommend their services."

Divorce Attorney

"I received excellent advice and representation from Ms. Lindsey Lewis. She kept me updated at every step of the process, and I never felt as if my case was set aside. I would hire The Ramos Law Group in the future. "

Highly recommend

"I started my divorce with a lawyer who was not very responsive. My divorce case was complicated and needed more laborious scrutiny. Since the case was not moving forward I had to switch lawyers. Made the switch to Ramos Law group. Since the very first day Mary and her team have been very efficient and meticulous. Since the case was complicated the team had to go through myriads of pages in discovery. I was pleased with the legal team that helped us handle the paperwork in a very timely manner. All my questions were answered very promptly. The relay of information was easy with their software system. We finally had a law firm that we could trust. My divorce was finalized and I only have Mary and her team to thank for going through a difficult divorce. I would highly recommend the Ramos law group for their help and support for getting my life back on track. "
