Bill Hoefer, Esq. is a dedicated divorce attorney and mediator with a wealth of experience guiding clients through the complexities of divorce matters. Based in Bronx, New York, Bill specializes in providing personalized, compassionate legal services tailored to each client’s unique situation. His comprehensive approach includes objective initial consultations, divorce mediation, uncontested divorces, and the preparation of pre-nuptial, post-nuptial, and separation agreements. Bill is committed to ensuring his clients are fully informed and confident in their decisions, offering expert guidance from the beginning of their legal journey through to its resolution. His practice is built on a foundation of integrity, empathy, and a deep understanding of family dynamics, making him a trusted advocate in times of transition.
For the first 20 years of his legal career, Bill was a litigating personal injury attorney, with over 20 jury verdicts. During this time, Bill developed a keen understanding of the court system, and what happens when parties don’t settle. Unfortunately, both parties rarely embrace the court’s final decision. That is why for the past 20 years, Bill has focused his practice entirely on resolving matrimonial matters without the need for a judge to make a decision.
Our firm specializes in a wide range of matrimonial law services, including simple uncontested divorces, divorce mediation, separation/settlement agreements, pre-nuptial and post-nuptial agreements, and domestic relations orders.
During the initial consultation, we provide an objective assessment of your situation. Based on your needs and your goals, Bill will recommend the most suitable course of action, whether it’s a simple uncontested divorce, divorce mediation, or divorce litigation.
Divorce mediation involves both parties working together with the mediator to resolve all issues which need to be addressed in a litigated divorce case, such as the equitable division of marital assets and debts, custody and parenting plans, child support, and maintenance (alimony). We facilitate these discussions, and ensure that all documents necessary to make informed decisions are exchanged. The result is that the parties can work together to come to what they believe is a fair settlement.
If communication is a challenge, we may still be able to mediate if you are both willing to try to come to a reasonable settlement. However, if communication is impossible, then we can still assist by recommending some very experienced and knowledgeable litigating divorce attorneys.
Yes, we handle domestic relations orders, which are necessary to divide retirement accounts like pensions and 401(k)s. This is an additional service we provide to ensure your financial interests are protected.
