Vanessa Samano, Attorney at Law

The Samano Family Law Firm specializes in divorce law, which includes separation, child custody, and child support. Separation and divorce are not the same thing, but they are frequently the first steps toward the latter. When a client decides to file for divorce, we submit the summons and complaint to the court. These are the legal documents that give notice to the person filing for divorce that states the grounds for divorce. The individual who is not filing for the divorce can respond to the divorce documents by defending against the claims and answering them after the summons and complaint have been filed in the court. A divorce can be either non-contested or contested. Most divorces are not mediated by a judge when they are uncontested. However, settlement talks are often required. Our clients are helped to resolve issues using non-adversarial methods such as mediation or arbitration, which are also less expensive and time-consuming than a court trial. If mediation or arbitration does not work or produce an agreement, then the courtroom is usually the last option. We will create a litigation strategy as a Knoxville separation and divorce attorney. This strategy includes having all of our ducks in a row to present the case effectively. This includes financial information and calling witnesses when needed.
