Family Law Services

Divorce

Divorce cases involve the legal dissolution of a marriage and address related issues such as property division, spousal support (alimony), and post-divorce modifications. Our attorneys guide clients through contested and uncontested divorces, striving for fair agreements while minimizing conflict.

 

Child Custody & Visitation

Child custody and visitation cases determine a parent’s legal and physical responsibilities and the right to spend time with minor children. We advocate for parenting plans, joint and sole custody arrangements, and enforce or modify visitation agreements, always focusing on the child’s best interests.

 

Child Support

Child support ensures that children’s financial needs are met after a separation or divorce. We help clients establish, modify, and enforce child support orders, navigating complex calculations and negotiation to protect your rights and those of your children.

 

Protection from Abuse / Domestic Violence

We help clients obtain protection from abuse (PFA) or restraining orders in cases of domestic violence or harassment, providing urgent legal intervention to ensure safety and peace of mind for vulnerable family members.

 

Adoption

Adoption law covers stepparent adoptions, private adoptions, agency adoptions, and international adoptions. Our attorneys guide families through legal requirements, paperwork, consent matters, and represent clients in termination of parental rights proceedings when necessary.

 

Department of Human Resources (DHR)

When DHR becomes involved, families face investigations related to allegations of abuse, neglect, or dependency. We advocate for parents and guardians during DHR hearings, offering guidance and defense to ensure the best possible outcome.

 

Termination of Parental Rights

Termination of parental rights is a serious legal process where a parent’s rights to their child are permanently severed, often due to abuse, neglect, or abandonment. Our firm assists clients in both defending and pursuing termination cases, with a focus on protecting child welfare.

 

Prenuptial & Postnuptial Agreements

We draft and review prenuptial and postnuptial agreements to help couples clarify property and financial arrangements before or after marriage, providing peace of mind and avoiding future disputes.

 

Guardianship

Guardianship cases involve appointing legal responsibility for a minor or incapacitated adult. We help families navigate petitions and hearings for guardianship, protecting your loved ones and ensuring their well-being.

 

Annulment

Annulments declare a marriage legally invalid from the start, often on grounds such as fraud, incapacity, or duress. Our attorneys advise on eligibility and guide clients through the annulment process.

 

Grandparents’ Rights

We handle cases that advocate for grandparents seeking custody, visitation, or legal recognition, ensuring their meaningful involvement in children’s lives.

 

Same-Sex Family Law

We represent same-sex couples on matters of divorce, custody, adoption, and parental rights, providing inclusive, knowledgeable counsel on unique legal challenges.
