David L. Ladov

Conshohocken Divorce Attorney

David is a partner in the Family Law Practice Group where he concentrates his practice in all areas of domestic relations, including divorce, custody, child support, equitable distribution, and abuse.

As a supportive and skilled divorce attorney, David is compassionate in his practice; he wants to help people successfully get through one of the most difficult times in their lives. This allows him to represent clients in a wide range of matters involving the most personal and sensitive legal issues that affect every aspect of families in transition. With a practice that extends throughout Pennsylvania, he handles both routine and complex cases, using top notch advocacy and negotiation skills to represent individuals in every aspect of family law. David does not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach. Instead, he helps his clients determine the most appropriate option for their individual case.

When David isn’t working, he enjoys playing golf and being a Penn Stater watching the Nittany Lions play football on TV or in-person.

David has over 40 years of experience in family law matters, primarily in the five-county region of Eastern Pennsylvania. As a highly skilled and respected divorce attorney, he has extensive experience in handling complex equitable distribution matters, custody cases for both mothers and fathers, including relocation, child, and spousal support cases for high-wealth families, and protection from abuse matters for abused children and wives.

David’s years of family law experience mean that he has seen hundreds of different familial situations, and he focuses on sharing that knowledge with each new client to help them better understand and handle their own unique personal situation.

David’s recent notable cases include:

• Obtained a favorable division of marital assets for a wife we represented who suffers from multiple sclerosis and other physical ailments. The result of the division provided her with a sound financial future so that she would be secure regardless of what future physical challenges she might encounter;
• Obtained an equal shared custodial arrangement for a father we represented so that the children spent as much time with him as they spent with their mother. The children felt very comfortable spending an equal amount of time with each parent and thrived in the non-conflict environment that the new homes now provided.
