Sometimes you need to go to trial for a divorce. Family law attorney and principal Alan Plevy discusses what happens when you and your spouse can’t reach an agreement.
“These cases are very difficult and a lot of times we have to prepare the case to go both ways,” says Plevy. “We work toward a settlement, but at the same time there are deadlines set by the court and we need to keep within those parameters.”
Plevy finds as spouses get closer to trial, emotions start revving up and things can get a little crazy. “It becomes very difficult because you’re now thinking emotionally a lot of times as opposed to thinking of it as a business decision.”
“There’s nothing wrong with settling the case and there’s nothing wrong with going to trial,” says Plevy. When there’s a spouse that is unwilling to change their position and the other is unwilling to compromise from their position, a divorce will go to trial.
