Our Family Law Practice
We work with men and women at all stages of a divorce, from the decision to file through the final resolution to post-judgment requests for modification or enforcement. We handle most issues related to or arising out of divorce, including:
- Child custody - We will help you address issues related to physical and legal custody, putting arrangements in place that are in the best interests of your minor children while protecting your interests as parents.
- Visitation - We will work with you to establish parenting plans that take into consideration the unique needs of your children, including medical, educational and religious concerns.
- Spousal maintenance - Our lawyers will help you determine whether a grant of alimony is warranted and, if so, how much should be paid and for how long.
- Paternity disputes - We will represent either side in a paternity action, and will assist you with custody, visitation or support issues that arise as a result of the finding.
We understand the emotional challenges that come with a divorce. We offer straightforward and effective communication at all times, making certain you understand the law and process, as well as your rights and options.
