Reviews & Testimonials
The best decision I made during my divorce was hiring Helen Rogers as my attorney. From the time you walk into her office and throughout your stay, you know you are in good hands. Ms. Rogers and her staff always made me feel that my case was important to them.
This review is long overdue. Helen Rogers, George Spanos, and Ethan Page helped me when I was at rock bottom. I truly don't know what I would have done had they not helped me with one of the most trying times of my life. They persevered and fought for me with a wonderful outcome!
I have never met a firm where they honestly care about their clients! Ethan and Jessica are phenomenal and I would refer them to anyone that is in need of a truly caring supportive attorney. Ethan is extremely knowledgeable and will do his best to help you with a positive outcome!

Nashville Divorce FAQ's
How long does a divorce take in Nashville?
The duration depends on whether the divorce is contested or uncontested. Uncontested divorces, where both parties agree on all terms, have a mandatory waiting period of 60 days if there are no minor children, or 90 days if there are minor children, starting from the date the divorce complaint is filed. Contested divorces, involving disagreements on issues like asset division or custody, can take several months to over a year, depending on court schedules and case complexity.
How are marital assets divided in a Nashville divorce?
In Davidson County, Tennessee, marital assets are divided equitably, but not necessarily equally, based on factors like the length of the marriage, each spouse’s financial contributions, and earning capacities. Courts aim for a fair division, considering assets like property, retirement accounts, and debts. Consulting an attorney ensures proper valuation and negotiation for a just outcome.
What factors determine child custody in Nashville?
Courts prioritize the child’s best interests, considering factors such as each parent’s relationship with the child, ability to meet the child’s needs, the child’s adjustment to home and community, and any history of domestic violence or substance abuse. A permanent parenting plan, outlining custody and visitation, is required, and attorneys assist in crafting or negotiating these plans.
