Legal Expertise You Can Count On

Too often, people facing family law issues are steered into adversarial court litigation without the opportunity to consider a different path. Posey Legal, PC was founded in 2019 to change that experience for families in transition. We focus on educating clients about the full range of dispute resolution options and empowering them to make informed decisions based on their family’s unique needs—rather than defaulting to litigation.

Process Options

Once you have arrived at the decision to divorce, it is time to give some thought to the available divorce process options. There are many ways to get divorced, and each option has differing levels of involvement from attorney, the court, and other professionals. Choosing the process option that is the best fit for your family can help alleviate some of the stress that comes with family restructuring.

If you think of divorce as your destination, then divorce process options are the potential methods of transportation to get you there. Depending on where you start and where you want to end up, you may need a little or a lot of help getting there.

Testimonials

Gary Bonetti

Amy Subach was the ideal person to be in my corner. She is solidly knowledgeable about the law and absolutely professional. I felt very comfortable talking to Amy. She is very thorough and direct. I would have been lost if it wasn't for her skillful navigation of my case. I highly recommend her services and you eventually will too if you hire Amy.

Jennifer Dekany

Highly recommend! I met with Joanna Posey to review my divorce papers from another mediator and I couldn't be more grateful for the experience. She is extremely knowledgeable and shared a wealth of helpful information about my options and how to navigate future changes. She was incredibly thorough and made efficient use of our time together. Thanks to her insights, I was able to save time in mediation, make necessary changes more smoothly, and feel much more confident about finalizing everything. The office space is comfortable and conveniently located, and everyone I interacted with was warm and professional.

Bella Wright (NWSBella)

I would highly recommend Jo Posey and her team. Jo (and Josh) guided me and advocated for me through every step of an almost two year complicated divorce process. The entire team was kind, patient and understanding during a difficult time. Jo followed through on EVERY detail of the agreement and all of the related legal, financial and elements involved. That included areas others involved didn’t have experience with or know how to navigate, some of which I had never heard of. It was thanks to Jo working late hours we met critical deadlines. Finally, neither Jo or Josh considered everything final until all of the post judgement steps required were completed. Personally, I couldn’t have made it through to the other side without Jo’s expertise and guidance.
