Divorce Lawyers Who Aren't Afraid of a Good Fight

Long, Branch, New Jersey, Attorneys for Contested Divorces

"Marital dissolution" is a more gentle way to say "divorce." And "contested divorce" is a more gentle way to say "knock-down, drag-out fight."

If you are anticipating a knock-down, drag-out fight in your own divorce — whether you intend to start the fight or just finish it — you want a divorce lawyer who knows how to fight fair and fight hard.

At the Long Branch law firm of Koufos & Norgaard, LLC, we have built a reputation as hard-fighting divorce lawyers who take our clients' needs and wishes seriously. Our attorneys use all our considerable legal skills to achieve divorce agreements that are not just acceptable, but favorable.

"We don't usually get hired for our reputation as lawyers who like to make friends with the other side." — Founding partner John Koufos

We Understand the Intricacies of New Jersey Family Court

Founding partner Veronica Norgaard began her legal career as a judicial law clerk in the Family Division and has been extensively trained in family law matters. Ms. Norgaard's experience with the judicial perspective on divorce cases increases her effectiveness as a zealous advocate for her clients' goals. Founding partner John Koufos also served as a judicial law clerk in the New Jersey superior court. He has gained a reputation for client satisfaction in family law disputes, especially in domestic violence and restraining order actions.

We Understand the Financial Consequences of Divorce

Divorce is about ending or reorganizing a family structure. But, divorce is also about money. A spouse whose lawyer doesn't understand the financial aspects of divorce will end up poorer, literally, for the experience. Our leading divorce attorney, Veronica Norgaard, uses her past work experience as a tax lawyer to provide highly knowledgeable financial guidance to her divorce clients.
