Comprehensive Divorce & Family Law Representation

Our family law practice covers the full range of issues that arise in divorce, custody, and support. We guide clients from the first filings to final orders, and we remain available for enforcement or modification when circumstances change. Whether a case involves straightforward separation or highly contested litigation, we provide clear advice, strong negotiation, and steady courtroom advocacy.

Divorce, Custody & Support

We represent clients in contested and uncontested divorces, custody matters, relocation, child and spousal support, and post-decree disputes. Our approach is practical and strategic: we identify what can be resolved by agreement and what requires litigation, and we prepare each case accordingly. We also draft and review prenuptial and postnuptial agreements tailored to each family’s needs.

High-Asset Divorce & Complex Property Division

Many of our cases involve business owners, executives, professionals, and families with significant or complex assets. These matters require careful valuation and clear strategy. We handle division of closely held companies, investment real estate, retirement plans, stock options and RSUs, inherited property, and assets subject to marital versus non-marital analysis. When appropriate, we work with financial experts to ensure accurate valuation and long-term protection of our clients’ interests.

Custody Strategy & Parenting Plans

Custody cases are often the most sensitive part of family law. We focus on stability, safety, and workable parenting arrangements that reflect the realities of each family. Our representation includes custody evaluations, school choice issues, relocation, communication problems between parents, and situations involving behavioral or mental-health concerns. We handle both negotiated parenting plans and contested hearings when agreement is not possible.

Focused, Strategic Advocacy

Clients choose Lebovitz & Lebovitz for our experience, our strategic approach, and our consistent communication. We explain the law, prepare clients for each step, and provide a clear plan for protecting their financial and parental rights. With more than ninety years of continuous family law practice, our firm brings perspective and steady judgment to even the most difficult cases.

Frequently Asked Questions

Family Law & Divorce FAQs

How do I file for divorce in Pennsylvania?

Pennsylvania requires at least six months of residency before filing. Divorce may proceed on a
no-fault basis through mutual consent with a ninety-day waiting period, or after a
one-year separation if one spouse does not consent. We prepare and file all pleadings and ensure
service and procedural requirements are handled properly.

What is equitable distribution of marital property?

Equitable distribution is Pennsylvania’s process for dividing marital assets and debts based on fairness.
This includes real estate, retirement accounts, businesses, stock options, cryptocurrency, and deferred
compensation. Separate property such as premarital assets, inheritances, and certain gifts may be
excluded, but only if properly traced. High-asset cases often involve business valuation, tax analysis,
and financial forensics.

How long does a divorce take in Pennsylvania?

Uncontested divorces can finalize shortly after the ninety-day consent period. Contested cases involving
custody, support, or equitable distribution may take significantly longer depending on complexity, court
scheduling, and whether valuation experts are required. We outline strategy and expected timelines during
your consultation.

What is a prenuptial agreement?

A prenuptial agreement defines how assets, income, and debts will be treated during marriage and in the
event of divorce. Valid prenups require full financial disclosure, voluntariness, and fair terms.
They are valuable for individuals with existing businesses, significant premarital assets, or children
from prior relationships.

Can I modify or revoke my prenuptial agreement?

Yes. A postnuptial agreement may modify or replace a prenup after marriage. This is common when spouses
start a business, receive an inheritance, acquire real estate, or need mid-marriage clarity. Both parties
must sign voluntarily with full disclosure.

How are child custody and support decided?

Custody decisions follow the best interests of the child standard, considering factors such as
stability, parental involvement, safety, educational needs, and each parent’s ability to cooperate.
Child support is calculated using Pennsylvania guidelines, with adjustments for shared custody, high-income
cases, extracurricular expenses, and health insurance coverage.
