Monthly Seminars - What Women Need to Know About Divorce

Divorce

When you come to the realization that your marriage is at an end, having the right mindset is one of the most important factors towards obtaining a successful divorce.

The welfare of your children should be of paramount importance.
Your contributions to the successes of the marriage should be acknowledged. This acknowledgement should not happen in a way that is merely convenient to your ex-husband, but rather in a way that is fair and just to you.
You should be looking forward to your new life, not dwelling on what might have been.

The attorneys at Hofheimer/Ferrebee have dedicated their practice to helping women of Virginia achieve divorces in such a way that they will be well equipped to start their new lives. We want our clients to have peace of mind, and to us that means that they have satisfactory co-parenting arrangements with their children, as well as their fair share of the finances that were built over the course of the marriage.

Partnering With You to Get the Best Outcome
The attorneys at Hofheimer/Ferrebee have been practicing divorce law long enough to understand that divorces can be contentious and overwhelming affairs. Over the decades, we have helped women through all types of divorce proceedings. We have helped finalize amicable splits, mediated divorces, collaborative divorces, and divorces involving aggressive litigation.

One of the key aspects towards our success as a firm has been our commitment to the welfare of our clients. We make sure that they are well informed about every step of the divorce process and confident in their ability to move forward. We work with divorce financial planners in order to minimize financial stresses on our clients. And we provide a seminar three times a month that will help provide not just our clients but all Virginia women with the information that they will need to help them through the process.

Attorneys Fighting for Virginia Women
Charlie Hofheimer, who founded this unique women-only practice in 1992, is a long-established practical advocate for the equality of women. Charlie is known throughout Virginia for doing much more than paying mere lip service to women’s rights. This dates back to his tenure as Student Bar President of the Law School of Washington and Lee University, where he successfully advocated the acceptance of women into the Law School. His commitment to the cause has yielded real results, from basketball scholarships for women at Old Dominion University to increased minority and female rights included in the platform of the Virginia State Democratic Party.

Like Charlie, all of the attorneys at Hofheimer/Ferrebee are passionate advocates of the cause of equality for women, and bring unique and personalized experience to bear for the benefit of our clients. We have attorneys experienced in obtaining favorable financial settlements through either litigation or negotiation, as well as attorneys with unique training in fighting for the best possible child custody arrangements. We also have the ability to aggressively defend our clients against the flimsy and unwarranted charges that can be brought up during contentious proceedings.

Choose a New Life Today
Our way of practicing divorce law involves encouraging our clients to choose a positive life for themselves instead of having it chosen for them. The end of your marriage should be seen as an opportunity for a new and beneficial life, and our reason for practicing law is to help you achieve it.

If you are considering divorce, consider attending one of our seminars, or order our book for more information. Or you can simply contact us at any time for a 1 hour legal consultation.

Thank you for visiting our website, and we will be honored to help you move forward.
