Divorce Lawyers Serving Springfield And Across Massachusetts

Divorce touches every part of your life at once. At Bacon Wilson, P.C., we understand that weight, and we are ready to stand by your side. For more than 130 years, our attorneys have delivered trusted, results-driven counsel to families across western Massachusetts and northern Connecticut.

Understanding Uncontested And Contested Divorce In Massachusetts

Under Massachusetts General Laws (M.G.L. c. 208), divorce cases may proceed on no-fault grounds based on an irretrievable breakdown of the marriage or on fault-based grounds.

If you and your spouse agree on all key issues, you may file for an uncontested divorce in Springfield. We will draft a detailed separation agreement to protect your interests. If significant disputes remain, your case becomes contested. We then move quickly to secure temporary orders that protect you and your children.

Some families prefer to resolve matters without court involvement. For those situations, we offer guidance through collaborative law, where both parties and their attorneys work together toward a fair, private resolution.

Protecting Your Family And Financial Interests During Divorce

Divorce often involves decisions about property, children and financial support that carry real consequences for your future. Having a family law attorney in Springfield ensures each matter receives the skilled attention it deserves. Here are the key areas where we can help you:

• Property division: Massachusetts divides marital assets equitably, not always equally. We identify all assets and work to protect your fair share.
• Child custody and parenting plans: We help build custody arrangements and parenting plans centered on your children’s best interests.
• Child support and alimony: We negotiate support terms that reflect your family’s true financial needs.

We handle each matter with precision and care.
