Washington Marital Dissolution Attorney
The outcome of a divorce can have a significant impact on your parental and financial rights. With so much at stake, the divorce process can be intimidating and emotionally challenging. Sometimes, just knowing that you have an experienced, dedicated and compassionate attorney working on your behalf can provide a tremendous source of relief.
I am Mark D. Hodgson, a Washington family law attorney committed to helping men and women who are going through the difficult process of divorce. If retained to handle your case, I will take time to understand your concerns, your objectives and your needs. I work closely with each of my clients to carefully advise them of their rights, provide candid advice and provide highly accessible and responsive support.
I have considerable experience in divorce cases and am prepared to adeptly manage all issues that may arise in your divorce, including:
- Property division
- Custody and visitation
- Parenting plans
- Child support
- Spousal support (alimony)
- Domestic violence
Whether you need help with a contested divorce, uncontested divorce or military divorce, I can help. I have experience in cases involving complex property division and complex matters impacting custody and visitation, including allegations of domestic violence, abuse, neglect, parental fitness and other complex matters that require the attention of an experienced divorce attorney.
Proactive Problem Solver and Skilled Trial Lawyer
As an experienced divorce attorney, I understand that disputes over property division and child custody can often become very heated. Rather than unnecessarily inflaming potentially contentious matters, I look for creative and proactive solutions to disputed matters. As a result of my proactive approach to dispute resolution, I am often able to help my clients avoid the time, stress and cost of protracted litigation, while fully safeguarding their parental and financial rights.
When it is in a client's best interest to take a case to court, however, I am willing, prepared and highly capable to do so. In fact, I prepare meticulously for the possibility of trial in each case. Thorough preparation is an aid both at trial and in negotiations and mediation. When an opposing party is unreasonable or the parties have earnest disputes that they are unable to resolve by negotiation, mediation or other form of alternative dispute resolution, I am prepared to vigorously defend my clients' rights and interests in the courtroom.
