Divorce & Legal Separation
Whether your divorce is contested or uncontested, it marks a significant life transition. AnaMaria guides you through no-fault and fault-based filing, focusing on protecting your long-term interests. She is prepared to negotiate amicable settlements but is equally ready to litigate in family court if the other party remains unreasonable.
High-Stakes Child Custody & Parenting Time
Protecting the best interests of the child is the cornerstone of court policy and AnaMaria’s practice. She assists parents in establishing legal and physical custody arrangements that provide stability for children while protecting parental rights.
From creating detailed parenting plans to navigating holiday schedules, she provides the attentive advocacy you need during times of upheaval.
Child Support & Financial Security
Massachusetts uses specific guidelines to determine child support, but the calculation is only as accurate as the data provided. AnaMaria meticulously scrutinizes income disclosures, including self-employment income, bonuses, and hidden assets, to make support orders fair, accurate, and sufficient to provide for your child’s needs.
Equitable Property Division
Massachusetts is an equitable distribution state, meaning the court divides marital property based on what is fair, not necessarily an even 50/50 split. AnaMaria focuses on the deconstruction of complex marital estates, including:
- Real estate - Primary residences, vacation homes, and investment properties.
- Retirement accounts - Pensions, 401(k)s, and IRAs.
- Business interests - Valuing and dividing closely-held businesses.
- Debts – Distributing liabilities fairly alongside assets.
Spousal Support (Alimony)
Alimony is no longer a permanent fixture in every case; it is governed by the Alimony Reform Act.
AnaMaria helps clients determine if alimony is appropriate based on the length of the marriage, the lifestyle established during the union, and the earning capacity of both parties. Whether you are seeking support or defending against an unfair claim, she provides the strategic analysis needed to reach a sustainable outcome.
