Background:

Attorney, Sven D. Buncher has been practicing law since 1996 and brings with him experience in handling complex, multimillion dollar cases with trials of weeks or months in duration.

Philosophy & Manner of Practice:

Mr. Buncher recognizes that in family law, the parties have particularly strong financial and emotional needs to resolve the matter as quickly as possible while minimizing costs.

Almost all family law matters should settle. This is because there is usually an agreement that can be reached that will leave both parties better off by providing them with certainty in the outcome, and avoidance of further litigation costs. Mr. Buncher is skilled at positioning cases to resolve as quickly as possible, while maximizing settlement value to the client.

The biggest obstacle to an expedient and favorable settlement is where one of the spouses is looking to extol a "pound of flesh" from the other. Fortunately, Mr. Buncher is adept in employing strategies to help redirect such vindictive people into approaching settlement on rational, rather than emotional terms. In those limited cases where such an approach cannot work, Mr. Buncher knows that the best results will be obtained by expediently and aggressively litigating the case at trial.

When you meet with Mr. Buncher, he will discuss your case in detail with you. He will then develop with you a customized plan to resolve your case as quickly, economically, and as beneficially as possible.
