Divorce and Family Law Services in New Canaan, Connecticut 06840

Dedicated Connecticut family lawyers help clients with marital problems in New Canaan, CT 06840

The Fairfield County legal team at Needle | Cuda devises goal-oriented legal strategies for New Canaan divorces. Married couples often choose to buy a home in New Canaan because of the small-town charm and luxury amenities offered by one of Connecticut’s highest income communities. Many families have country club memberships and make it a habit to shop, wine and dine downtown, but we understand that enjoying a plush lifestyle can also mean enduring the pressures of a high net worth divorce, and we work with our clients to make the process as stress-free and efficient as possible.

Caring local legal team respects the interests of the New Canaan, CT community

Whether you are going through a divorce or seeking modification of an earlier court order, it is important that your attorney understands the local nuances and social rhythms that affect your everyday life and the lives of your children.

Dunning Stadium and Ram Boosters are just as familiar to us as Greenwich Cardinals, Staples Wreckers, and Ridgefield Tiger boosters from the always windy, rainy, cold Tiger Hollow (sorry Ridgefield).

Our attorneys and staff are either natives of and/or current residents of Greenwich, Westport, Fairfield, Easton and Redding. Our lives have been spent interacting within these communities and the surrounding communities in lower Fairfield County. As former youth athletes and ultra-active parents (we all have several kids – firm total: 19 children under the age of 26), we have spent countless hours on every ball field, middle school, high school stadium, rec center, pool and rink between Greenwich, Hartford and Springfield, MA.

Like you, we have great memories of celebrations and events at The Waveny House, exhibits at The Silvermine Art Center, nights out at The Playhouse followed by dinner on Main Street, and the comforting New Canaan landmarks like Pinocchio’s, The Fire Company and The Glass House.

Needle | Cuda proudly serves  New Canaan neighborhoods including: Pinney’s Corner, Selleck’s Corner, Smight Ridge Road, Canoe Hill Road, Talmage Hill, Ponus Ridge, and New Canaan Center.

Needle | Cuda supports the Domestic Violence Crisis Center (DVCC) and its mission to provide effective services, support, and education for the prevention and elimination of domestic violence across the Connecticut communities of Stamford, Norwalk, Darien, New Canaan, Westport, Weston, Wilton, and beyond.

As longtime Fairfield County residents, our attorneys and legal staff have a clear perspective of what is at stake for New Canaan families in the throes of legal conflicts. Our kids play in the same sports leagues as the children of many of our clients. We eat at the same restaurants and shop at the same stores. We look out for our clients’ family interests as we would our own.

Fairfield County lawyers skilled at divorce solutions

Our firm efficiently negotiates and litigates New Canaan family disputes, including those over:

• Alimony — A divorcing spouse may be awarded alimony to help maintain the standard of living experienced during the marriage. Alimony amounts can be quite large in high-net-worth New Canaan divorces, as many residents enjoy lavish lifestyles.
• Property division — Connecticut divorce courts divide assets equitably, but not necessarily equally. Our legal team meticulously accounts for marital property and searches for hidden bank or investment accounts and other secreted property.
• Child support — Child support calculations consider the income of parents and the needs of children. A child support order for a child in a wealthy family may factor in such expenses as private school tuition and elaborate extracurricular activities.
• Child custody and visitation — Connecticut courts prefer custody agreements that allow children to spend significant time with each parent. Our lawyers draft and negotiate parenting plans for couples who agree to share child custody. If you are seeking sole custody, we can present arguments that it is an arrangement beneficial for your child.

We pursue solutions that protect your family and bank accounts.
