We represent fathers who are going through divorce, child custody, alimony, and other family law processes. Too often, fathers are taken advantage of during these processes. We believe in standing up for fathers, and ensuring they are entitled to the same rights and privileges, if not more, than the mother.

In many families, grandparents play a great role in the upbringing of a child, and are sometimes even the primary caretakers. If you are a grandparent who wishes to obtain visitation or custody rights of a grandchild, our firm can represent you, and ensure the rights you are entitled to are protected.

While divorce can be one of the most complicated legal processes to go through, military divorce can be especially complex.

Divorce is stressful enough; when courtroom visits and litigation are involved, the matter can become especially overwhelming. Through uncontested divorce, you can avoid spending some of the time, money, and stress that is otherwise associated with courtroom processes. If your situation calls for uncontested divorce, our team can help ensure the process goes as smoothly and efficiently as possible.

When it comes to protecting your property, children, assets and more, establishing a marital agreement can be essential.

Once a marriage has come to an end, determining 'who gets what' can become a complicated and heated situation. You don't have to work through this difficult time alone, though. With your interests in mind, we will do all we can to ensure your rights and property are protected.

Divorce is complicated and sometimes, when the situation involves a same sex couple, matters can become especially complex. Due to new laws and proceedings, it is important to work with a team who is experienced and knowledgeable in the field. Our team is highly familiar with all family law and divorce proceedings, and can provide you with the helpful guidance you are seeking during this difficult time.

Our firm understands that when children are involved in divorce, the process can become particularly emotional and complex.

Whether you are the party who will be paying or receiving the child support, our firm can provide you with helpful guidance, and look out for your interests. We want to do what we can to help you avoid heated child support disputes, and we strive to help you obtain the outcome that is most favorable for you and your child's situation.

Annulment can be a complicated process, and if you are looking to get your marriage annulled, our team can assist you.

Get the Answers You Need

How long will my case take?

Answer:

The length of a family law case depends on a number of factors. If the parties cannot come to an agreement and the case must be taken to court, your process will take longer. If children or high assets are involved, the process is also more likely to take longer. For example, while the length of a divorce typically takes one year, the process will take longer if the spouses cannot agree on the terms, or if children or high assets are involved.
Will I have to take my case to court?

Answer:

It is not uncommon for a family law case to need to be taken to court. When you work with our firm, we will try to help you reach an amicable resolution; however, this is not always possible. If you are unable to resolve your case peacefully, we are prepared to represent you in court, where we will ensure your rights are protected.
Do I really need an attorney?

The family law system can be complicated, and these types of processes can be personal and emotional.
