Matrimonial Law

New York Matrimonial Law Attorney

Matrimonial law, otherwise known as “family law,” relates to issues surrounding the nature of marriage, property division, entry into a marriage, children, termination of marriage, and child and spousal support.

Entry into Marriage

Matrimonial law deals with how couples enter into marriage by covering issues like prenuptial agreements and the legal requirements of a marriage. A prenuptial agreement can determine the rights of each spouse regarding marital property, child custody, spousal support, estate issues, separate property and other issues regarding the marriage. It is an agreement entered into between the spouses before the marriage.

Termination of Marriage

Matrimonial law in each state deals with issues regarding the termination of marriage by setting up rules about divorce and annulments. The family law of each state determines when an otherwise valid marriage can be terminated by divorce or when a marriage was never valid in the first place.

Child & Spousal Support

Matrimonial law in each state deals with issues regarding support of a person’s spouse and/or child by establishing formulas and criteria regarding child support and spousal maintenance. A state’s family and divorce law establishes the criteria regarding when someone needs to pay the support for the other spouse and/or for child support, how much needs to be paid, and for how long. There are also tax ramifications involved.

    “Smart, tough, responsive Attorney !”
    When my daughter was sideswiped and served with a summons by her husband we called Lois Brenner. I had met Lois when she was giving a seminar on Marriage and Finances. I thought she was really smart. I never dreamt I would be calling her to help my daughter. When we went to see her she put our minds at ease. We immediately knew she was the attorney for us. She managed to negotiate a really good settlement with my son-in-law’s attorney. She was tough and always returned our phone calls and responded immediately to our emails. We even heard from her on weekends!! She was determined to keep us out of court and guided us every step of the way. She was our Angel!!! Mary B.

    “We love Lois!”
    What a gem! Lois Brenner is the best out there by far... She got my husband and I right away. Listened, guided, let me cry, and never gave up on us during our mediation sessions. It was not easy but she made it possible. Even my husband liked her and agreed to mediate after we had lots of arguments. Thank you Lois. I already recommended you to my cardiologist. Have a happy, productive New Year.

    “Inventive Attorney”
    We have Lois Brenner to thank for turning our marriage around. We hired Lois as our mediator when we were considering divorce. When we started working with her and she realized we wanted to try to keep our marriage together she suggested a postnuptial agreement to get our marriage back on track. Having the postnuptial agreement made us both accountable when it came to our issues. Having this doc in place is clearly helping us redefine our marriage in a better way. I don’t know if we will never get divorced, but for now we are respecting each others’ boundaries and are aware of the consequences if we don’t! It was really cool that Ms. Brenner suggested this method as an option. Most divorce attorneys would not have suggested a way for us to try to stay together. She is very talented and unusual in the best possible way. If we choose to take the divorce path eventually we will definitely hire her again. In the meantime we are making it work. She is amazing.

    “The most understanding and accommodating Firm”
    Dealing with this firm was a gift from above. They were very understanding and made the whole process painless. They are open after regular work hours which was super convenient for a working professional. As a Surgeon in NYC going through this process the firm was very accommodating to my changing schedule. I am forever grateful that the firm was able to find a great solution to all issues so that everyone was taken into account and came to a responsible agreement. Thank you Lois Brenner you are the best!

    “"High Net Worth Professionals"”
    I am a highly successful money manager and before meeting Lois Brenner, hiring a divorce attorney was a disaster. Two previous divorce attorneys really wasted my funds, and had no savvy when it came to asset and property distribution. Lois Brenner finally fixed the mess I was in. She and her team of financial experts, including attorney Matthew Ehrlich were able to prepare an asset and property distribution that was realistic, keeping in mind tax ramifications, and important distributions and allocations. They negotiated a thorough and financially sound divorce settlement. If you have a lot of assets, just any divorce attorney won’t do. You really need someone with a lot of knowledge. Lois Brenner and Matthew Ehrlich were really impressive. Thanks!!
