Attorney Smart's Approach
Robert Smart provides effective and timely advocacy for his divorce clients. He obtains appropriate temporary orders, on custody and visitation, support, occupancy (or sale) of the marital home, and personal safety. He obtains favorable judgments for his clients at trial. At the same time, he recognizes that over 90% of Massachusetts divorce cases are settled prior to trial, so effective negotiation is critical. Mr. Smart helps his clients to resolve disputes over custody, child support, property division, alimony, small business issues, and taxes. His goal in divorce cases is to achieve favorable results for his clients, while also anticipating and resolving potential future conflicts, so that the parties do not have to return to court after the divorce. Mr. Smart has considerable experience in real estate and business law, which gives him an advantage over many other divorce practitioners.
Mr. Smart also provides strategic advice to clients who are going through divorce mediation.
