Last updated on May 5, 2025

Untangling from a marriage or a long-term partner can be one of the most difficult life transitions you may ever face. At Dahlberg, Stanley & Foderetti, LLC, our Columbus divorce and dissolution attorneys have dedicated their legal careers to supporting families in need, especially during the challenging times surrounding the end of a marriage.

Our divorce lawyers will offer compassionate support and personalized legal guidance through your legal separation, dissolution or divorce proceeding, advocating for your rights and protecting your best interests.

Legal Representation For All Aspects Of A Separation, Dissolution Or Divorce

In Ohio, there are two legal avenues to end a marriage. These include a divorce, which is the legal ending of a marriage through court proceedings. In the alternative, a dissolution is a mutual agreement between spouses to end their marriage amicably. Every case is different, with unique circumstances. Our dissolution and divorce lawyers can guide you through whichever process you need to pursue and support you through all aspects of ending your marriage, including:

  • The distribution of property: We help you assess the value of marital assets and work to divide marital property and debt fairly and equitably.
  • Spousal support: Our legal team can assess whether or not spousal maintenance or alimony is appropriate in your case and advocate for a fair outcome.
  • Child custody: In Ohio, the court will make decisions based on the best interests of your child. We will negotiate a resolution to custody conflicts or advocate for your parental rights in court.
  • Parenting time schedules: Our experienced attorneys will assist in creating schedules that work for both parents and children, customizing our advice based on your unique circumstances and family schedules.
  • Child support: Our attorneys will assess child support needs and advocate for accurate and fair financial support.

Our dissolution attorneys strive to facilitate agreements and resolutions amicably whenever possible through settlement negotiations and mediation. However, if it becomes necessary, our divorce lawyers are prepared to advocate for your rights in a trial.

The Legal Complexities Of A High-Asset Divorce

High net worth divorces come with unique challenges, particularly regarding asset valuation and the division of marital property. Our family law attorneys have experience handling these complexities and can draw on a network of resources, such as forensic accountants and financial advisors, to support a fair and equitable resolution to the property issues in your case.

Rebuilding Your Life After Divorce

As you get further away from your divorce, your circumstances can rapidly change. Sometimes, these changes require amendments and revisions to your original dissolution agreements or divorce court orders. When changes in child custody, support or visitation plans become necessary due to new jobs, relocations or other significant changes in circumstances, our attorneys can help you file a petition to modify an existing court order.

Additionally, Dahlberg, Stanley & Foderetti, LLC, offers other legal services for Columbus families, including estate planning services. If you need to revise your estate plan post-divorce, or consider a bankruptcy filing to give you a fresh start financially, our lawyers are here to provide seasoned guidance and advice.
