What is a "high conflict" attorney? |
Come on, now. Use context clues. He's looking for a lawyer who can effectively manage a contentious divorce, i.e. a box case. Only about 5% of divorces go to court -- usually because the parties can't resolve things between themselves. These are the six-figure divorce cases. OP wants a lawyer who'll fight for him. Maybe his wife has a personality disorder or something and is deluded in thinking she is entitled to more than the law provides. That's pretty common -- a lot of wives think they'll get more in divorces than they actually will, and so they become difficult. |
Glad you were able to suss all that out from OP's single line post. Thanks. |
Or maybe OP is the wife needing a strong attorney well-versed in high conflict because the husband is the one with the personality disorder, which is more commonly the case. |

Or, maybe the wife had an affair, leaving to be with the AP and wants a huge amount of child support, allimony and to maximize child support full custody. |
Or maybe wife is simply bat$hit crazy. Which would probably be the case in about 95% of divorce cases. |
You know NY is an entire state right? You need someone in the city you live in. An NYC lawyer is not going to be helpful if you live in Buffalo. |
What part of NY? |
I have recommendations but tell me more. It is said by many experts that the only sane way to do this is through mediation fwiw |
These are fairly fixed calculations and there is a presumption of continued parenting according to the allocation prior to the separation. People want to think they are gonna get a ‘bulldog’ lawyer to get them the ‘BEST’ deal but a lot of that is nonsense. And costs money and time, all of which the lawyers LOVE |
