Lastly, before you enter the rest of our site, we would like you to know the manner in which we handle divorce cases. It has been our experience in handling hundreds of divorces that it serves no purpose to litigate every aspect of your divorce. To do so is expensive, time consuming, and painful. To avoid the litigation course, we make every effort to settle your case with your spouse by treating them with respect and fairness. In many cases, this approach is successful. If however, your spouse is not agreeable to being fair with you, you can rest assured that we have the trial experience necessary to assert your rights in the Courts of the Commonwealth.

We would welcome the opportunity to meet with you in person to discuss your situation. This initial consultation is free of charge. As Attorney Morris does not want to accept a fee until it is determined that he can assist you & that you are comfortable retaining him as you attorney.
