Uncontested Divorce Rises in Popularity in Tough Economy
New York Uncontested Divorce Attorneys See Increase in Demand for Services
LAKE SUCCESS, NY, January 09, 2010 /Marriage - Relationships PR News/ -- Keil & Siegel, L.L.P. (www.lowcostdivorceny.com), New York divorce attorneys specializing in uncontested divorce, have seen an increase in clients opting for uncontested divorces. In the tough economic climate, many couples are choosing to avoid the expensive and emotionally trying process of traditional divorce, and instead filing for uncontested divorce - a far less expensive option.
In a contested divorce an attorney typically requires a large retainer and demands a steep hourly rate. The litigation process can cost anywhere between $50,000 to $200,000 when factoring in the cost of attorney's fees, financial advice, counseling and real-estate costs for the buying or renting of separate homes. In better economic times, divorces were typically funded by the sale of the marital home, but with the downturn of the housing market, many couples are unable to leverage their home for this purpose.
In contrast, an uncontested divorce can be filed often for under $1000 - a much more budget-friendly option. In an uncontested divorce, typically both parties have small issues left to negotiate, yet most of the issues can be agreed upon. The New York uncontested divorce attorneys at Keil & Siegel have seen that, in the state of economy, couples have been more willing to compromise when they realize they cannot afford to fund their fight.
"Divorce of any kind is never an easy thing for a couple or family, and many couples in this situation are starting to realize that compromising can be better for their family emotionally, as well as financially," said Melanie Siegel, Long Island divorce attorney and partner at Keil & Siegel, L.L.P. "We have seen quite the increase of clients deciding to go this route, and we can help them file their uncontested divorce quickly and for very minimal fees," said Siegel.
