November 13, 2019 – Importance of Disclosure

“It is trite to say that documentary disclosure is an integral part of family litigation.  Without forthright and expedient financial disclosure, family litigation cannot be conducted in a logical, rational manner nor can litigation be settled without comprehensive documentary disclosure.  Documentary disclosure which includes financial disclosure is integral and the foundation of family law cases for the purpose of either going to trial or settlement.  The sooner comprehensive financial disclosure is provided in a logical manner, the sooner litigants in family cases can assess their case and attempt to settle that case.”
