To win the divorce battle, you should mediate and negotiate. Litigate only if negotiations fail. As a divorce lawyer, Duane Henry, of the Law Offices of Duane Henry (925-825-5010), has the skills and experience to help you succeed. We offer you a strong chance to complete your divorce with a good outcome at a reasonable cost, a minimum of stress for you and your family, within a reasonable time frame and, in many cases, without going to court.While the Law Offices of Duane Henry is ready and able to litigate vigorously and effectively to achieve a good outcome for you if mediation and negotiations fail, litigation is almost always the most expensive and stressful way to become single again. Duane Henry's goal, as a divorce lawyer, is to optimize his clients chances of achieving the best possible divorce terms without resort to litigation in court. The Law Offices of Duane Henry offers Divorce Mediation Services at a reasonable hourly rate and with a good track record for success. We also offer full service and unbundled (limited scope) legal representation and bring our negotiation skills to work for you. We work with your schedule, recognizing that you have a real life with a real job and a real family to care for. Divorce is something you simply want to get completed at a reasonable cost, on the best terms reasonably possible and with a minimum of stress. We keep the focus on protecting your children, if you have them, and we constantly think of the emotional impact on you and your family of strategy choices that we help you face.Your spouse may not seem like a human being at times, but he or she is. People are at their absolute worst during a divorce and during the period leading up to the divorce. At the Law Offices of Duane Henry, we have seen, and can help control and moderate, the anger and pain of divorce. We focus on achieving good and fair terms for your divorce, not on inflicting pain on your ex-spouse. A focus on revenge or other vindictive behavior will usually back-fire and produce a worse result. It may even produce sanctions (a monetary fine) under Section 271 of the Family Code. If litigation becomes necessary, vengeful and vindictive behavior is viewed with great disfavor by the Contra Costa courts. We try, and usually succeed, at keeping things cool and professional so that a good and fair result can be obtained. We can usually calm people down and bring a problem-solving search for win-win opportunities to the negotiation and/or mediation table.
