Want Peace of Mind and a Complete Evaluation of Your Case?

Call (610) 347-5683 NOW or Click HERE to Schedule a Consultation with Chester County Pennsylvania Divorce & Family Law Attorney, Michaelangelo L. Dippolito. Click HERE to see the attorney’s background.

Here’s What Happens at the Consultation:

Get the Facts. We’ll begin with a general conversation about the marriage, children, and assets. Then, the attorney will write down in detail facts and circumstances necessary to evaluate your case. After that, the attorney will explain to you the seven areas of a divorce: (1) divorce; (2) child custody; (3) child support; (4) dividing the marital assets; (5) spousal support; (6) alimony pendente lite; and (7) alimony. In some cases, it may be necessary to discuss premarital or post nuptial agreements and how those agreements can change the typical divorce process.

What About Your Case? Based on the information you provide to the lawyer, you’ll discuss which of the seven areas apply to you. For example, if you don’t have children, obviously child custody is not something that applies to you, and that can be true of spousal support too. Based on your facts and circumstances, the attorney will explain the process, identify the legal issues that must be resolved in your case, and answer any questions that you may have.

What’s Next? Most importantly, you’ll have a preliminary strategy for moving forward. It’s one thing to be educated on the different areas of divorce, but it’s quite another to understand how to implement a strategy for moving forward to solve your specific problems.

Peace of Mind. When you’re done with the one hour consultation, you’ll have peace of mind because you’ll have an understanding of the divorce process and the options available to you. At that point, you’ll be able to decide whether you’d like to move forward quickly or you may decide that you need more time to think before deciding what to do next. Either way, you’ll be much better off having gotten the important information you need upon which you’ll base many of your future decisions to protect your legal rights.

Our Client Reviews

"Mike was great to work with! He was thorough and he made sure I knew he was there to answer any questions and concerns I had. He made the situation we were dealing with very easy and handled it in a very timely manner. I would highly recommend Mike to anyone"

Leigh

John

"I have known Mike Dippolito for 35 years; however, If he didn’t do an exceptional job representing me as a lawyer, I wouldn’t post this review. I hired Mike to represent me in a custody case. Mike clearly explained the steps he would take to prepare my case. As one step led to the next, Mike presented the scenarios we would encounter and he provided the legal basis for what were my best options. There was little emotional component to the decision-making. Mike presented the legal basis for my case and allowed me to make the final decision on how to proceed based on what the case law indicated the likely outcome would be. Ultimately, I never went to court, but the issue was resolved to my satisfaction. I highly recommend The Peoples Law Firm, and Mike Dippolito. The fee structure and methodology were agreed to in advance so there were no surprises. Given the stress of entering into a legal proceeding, I appreciated the lack of drama I had while dealing with my lawyer."

Joe

"I’ve known Mike for many years and consulted with him on many legal matters. Most recently, I needed a power of attorney for my son who is in the military. Mike’s system is done all electronically and I was able to log on to a secure portal in his law firm and get the document. I would recommend Mike to anyone who is looking for a professional lawyer."

Darrin

"I have known Michael for 5 years. I asked him to assist me in a credit issue but he recommended that I call a lawyer specializing in credit and bankruptcy. The legal advice was excellent and the result was a $500 expense to save $4000. I appreciated his assistance. Even though he did not earn any fee from me, his analysis on my situation was accurate. I would recommend him to anyone interested in obtaining a professional lawyer."
