When confronted with divorce, custody, child support, spousal maintenance, and other family law-related issues, it is never too early to seek legal advice and counsel to help you make good decisions for yourself and your family.

Jeffrey R. Arrigoni has more than 36 years of legal experience, assisting clients throughout the Twin Cities metro area in a full range of family law matters, from commencement through conclusion, including mediation, trials, and appeals. As a divorce lawyer, Mr. Arrigoni is very sensitive to his clients’ needs and concerns, but he is tough when it comes to protecting their rights and interests. To minimize emotional and financial strain on his clients, he works to settle cases whenever possible. If, however, litigation is necessary in any given situation, he is able and willing to go to trial, and has the experience to do so. Attempting to handle family law matters on your own can lead to significant problems down the road, including arrangements that are unfair, contrary to law, or that limit your ability to be self-sufficient.

Divorce Attorney discusses Minnesota Divorce Law

The formal legal term for divorce in Minnesota is Dissolution of Marriage. Beyond entering a formal decree dissolving the marriage, a divorce court will also deal with diverse issues such as child custody, child support, spousal maintenance (alimony), the division of marital property, the award of non-marital property (assets brought into the marriage by one of the spouses), valuations of businesses, division of debt, and the division of pension and retirement plans. Resolving these questions in your best interest requires an experienced attorney who is familiar with Minnesota family law and the Minnesota Courts and does not have to spend substantial time doing research to assist you in strategizing and evaluating and handling these matters. Jeff Arrigoni is a Washington and Ramsey County divorce lawyer with 36 years of legal experience in the Minnesota courts. Jeff practices in family law and represents clients throughout the twin city area, including in Dakota County, Hennepin County, Anoka County, Scott County, Carver County, Chisago County, Pine County, Sherburne County, Isanti County, and Kanabec County.

It is difficult, if not impossible, in many instances to correct errors or decisions that have been made in a divorce proceeding by someone who has filed  the forms themselves once the divorce is finalized.  Once the final paperwork is submitted to the Court and signed off by a Judge, you may have waived your right to pursue potential relief. It is important that you obtain legal representation at the first sign that a divorce is imminent or will likely occur. Minnesota Family Law is a unique area of legal practice. It is not simple, but is instead filled with a vast array of Minnesota case law interpreting unique facts and circumstances. There are also unique formulas and long-standing precedent (prior case law) that are considered by the Court in dealing with issues such as spousal maintenance and non-marital assets, the calculation of child support, and the valuation of businesses, the division of pensions and retirement accounts, that require an experienced family law attorney.
