A Simpler Path to Ending Your Marriage

For couples who agree on key issues, dissolution offers a streamlined and cost-effective alternative to divorce. At Fogelman Law Firm, we help clients across Clermont, Hamilton, Butler, Warren, and Brown Counties complete the dissolution process efficiently while ensuring their rights and interests are fully protected.

Is Dissolution Right for You?

If both parties are cooperative, dissolution allows you to avoid prolonged litigation and maintain greater control over the outcome.

Dissolution may be a good option if you and your spouse can agree on everything before filing, including:

  • Division of assets and debts

  • Spousal support (if applicable)

  • Child custody and parenting time

  • Child support obligations

Our Dissolution Process

We have developed a structured process to make dissolution as seamless as possible:
