The Lawyers You Deserve Pursuing The Best Possible Resolutions

Guidance Through Difficult Family Law Issues

Our firm offers the highly effective representation people need when they are facing difficult family law issues such as:

  • Divorce — A divorce is more than the end of a marriage; it is a roadmap to the future you want to build. We can help you make the most of it.
  • Child custody and visitation — When each aspect of your children’s future is going to be affected by the determination of their custody and visitation, you need a lawyer who can help you with this major decision-making process.
  • Child support — Appropriate child support is essential for the financial stability necessary to care for children’s needs. Our attorneys know the law and how to apply the financial expertise to your advantage.
  • Spousal support — We can help you build the strong case you need regarding spousal support.
  • Separation agreements — When you want to retain a greater degree of control over issues that would otherwise be decided by a judge during your divorce, we can help you negotiate a separation agreement that serves your needs.
  • Equitable distribution The proper division of the marital estate can be critical in providing the financial stability people need as they establish their new households.
  • Mediation Not all family law matters are best resolved in the courts. Mediation offers financial savings, more timely resolutions and a greater degree of control than working through the courts.
  • Stepparent adoption When a stepparent wants to secure legal recognition of the bond that has grown between themselves and their stepchild, we can assist with the adoption process.
  • Prenuptial agreements Prenuptial agreements offer a degree of certainty regarding assets and other issues that many people welcome as they are entering a new marriage.
  • Domestic violence — When violence is a part of your home life, we can help you secure a protective order to help you begin resolving the situation.
