Matthew Brickman sits down to speak with Lisa Zeiderman, managing partner of her own firm in New York, focuses on high-net-worth divorce cases involving complex financial assets and custody litigation, while Matthew specializes in child custody and mediation.
Lisa discusses the role of attorneys for children in New York, who advocate for the child's expressed wishes, and the lengthy, complex process of custody cases involving forensic evaluations and court backlog.
Financial aspects such as forensic accounting, vocational experts, and alimony considerations—including the impact of domestic violence—are explored. Both express skepticism about collaborative divorce, favoring mediation as a voluntary, well-timed process after discovery.
The discussion clarifies New York's dual court system for family matters, child support rules extending to age 21 or beyond in special cases.
Lisa also provides insights into the practical challenges and legal nuances of family law in New York, emphasizing the importance of thorough preparation and realistic expectations.
