Serving Clients Statewide
More than 10% of Connecticut residents have experienced divorce in one form or another—legally known in Connecticut as a dissolution of marriage.

At Valassis Law Offices, we focus on helping individuals and couples resolve divorce matters with minimal conflict, cost, and delay—especially through uncontested divorce and mediation-based solutions whenever possible.
A Smarter Approach to Divorce in Connecticut
Divorce doesn’t have to mean drawn-out court battles. Our philosophy emphasizes:

We help couples move forward on their timeline, not one dictated by court congestion, unnecessary disputes, waisted resources and emotional strain.
Divorce & Family Law Services in Fairfield County and throughout Connecticut
We guide clients through every stage of divorce on an uncontested basis:
1. Alimony (Spousal Support)
We help structure fair and sustainable alimony agreements—whether temporary or long-term—based on your financial realities and goals.
2. Property & Asset Division
Connecticut follows equitable distribution, meaning assets and debts are divided fairly (not necessarily equally). We work to reach agreements that protect your financial future without unnecessary litigation.
3. Child Custody & Parenting Plans
We prioritize solutions that support frequent, meaningful relationships with both parents. Our goal is to create practical parenting plans that work in real life—not just on paper.
4. Child Support
We advocate for child support arrangements that are fair, realistic, and aligned with Connecticut guidelines, including modifications when circumstances change.
Your Divorce Options in Connecticut
Understanding your legal options is the first step toward making the right decision.
1. Uncontested Divorce (Preferred)
When both spouses agree on major issues like finances and parenting, divorce can be:
-Faster
-More affordable
-Less stressful for everyone involved—especially children.
We strongly encourage and support this path.
2. Mediation & Negotiated Settlements
Mediation allows couples to:
-Maintain control over decisions
-Reduce legal expenses
-Preserve a working relationship (especially important for co-parents)
We guide and support clients through mediation to reach balanced, enforceable agreements.
3. Legal Separation
For couples who wish to remain legally married for financial or personal reasons, legal separation offers a structured alternative.
