Standing Up for Your Rights

When it comes to family issues, you need someone who knows the system. I have helped many clients through the daunting legal issues related to:
  • Divorce
  • Child Custody
  • Modifications of Prior Orders
  • Name Changes
  • Paternity and Parentage
  • Post Divorce Property Partition Division of Property Enforcement
  • Child Support Enforcement - Prosecuting & Defending
  • Delinquent Child Support Collection- based on Decrees and child support orders rendered from the 1960's forward. Even if the Statute of Limitations has run on enforcement by Contempt, judgements and wage withholding orders are always available. 
  • Visitation rights and Enforcement
  • Pre-Marital Agreements and Co-Habitation Agreements
  • Grandparents’ rights
  • Simple Wills, Directives to Physicians and Medical Powers of Attorney

Pre-Lawsuit and/or Pre- Divorce Planning

Knowledge can be a 'game-changer' in litigation. If there is a possibility that a family law related suit will be filed by you or anyone else, schedule a consultation to plan for and to strategize. Know your rights and options. Preventative measures are also options everyone needs to explore. 

Personal Assistance

Changing family relationships can be a very difficult and stressful path. When your family relationships have been forced into the legal system it can be one of the most frightening experiences of your life. It is our job to help you navigate your case through the complex court system while protecting your rights. We care about your situation. From our initial consultation, my assistants and I will work with you every step of the way to ensure that you understand your rights, duties and options. We also advise you on how to deal with the opposing party, the problems and irritations which commonly arise. While the ultimate decisions on your future will be yours I will make the legal decisions and advise you on the the upsides and downsides of the decisions you will ultimately have to consider. We will offer guidance and resources on how best to get yourself and your children through this emotional maze. Working to settle your family issues out of court through mediation, is our first goal, however, there will be no hesitation to go to court to litigate your case if a reasonable compromise is not a possibility. Our primary focus will be on you, the client, but we never lose sight of the best interests of your Children/Grandchildren.
