Divorce.

At one point, you thought you were building a family, and now that family is falling apart. If you are facing divorce, we want to walk alongside you.

Divorce has a huge impact on your life emotionally, spiritually, and practically. From the legal side, in a divorce case, parenting time (custody), parental rights, child support, spousal support (maintenance), and division of property need to be sorted out, and that’s where we come in.

We work to bring peace.  Sure, there’s nothing less peaceful than a divorce. But the more we can reduce conflicts and resolve disputes, you, your spouse, and especially your children, will be better off.

We seek justice.  Sadly, divorcing spouses can quickly become adversaries in a divorce process. We know the legal system, we are experienced in representing our clients in the Courts, and working with their spouses, other attorneys, and professionals involved in the case. We will not let you be abused, used, taken advantage of, or manipulated by your spouse.

 We care about your children.  If your divorce involves children, you are probably concerned about their well being during this tumultuous time for your family.  We are too.  The well-being of children is often the first and most devastating casualty of divorce. With or without realizing it, you and your spouse bring the effects of conflict home to your children every day. We want to support your family. We want to end your conflict, minimizing its destructive effects on your children. We want to point you to healthy, valuable resources to allow your children to thrive despite the changes to your family.

We care about your finances. You're not in it for the money.  But you do want to protect your future.  Whether you're the primary wage-earner or the parent who's raised the kids and made the house run smoothly, you have financial interests to protect, and we can help.   We will analyze your financial circumstances and make the most of the law to ensure you can both provide for your family and meet your monthly needs.

Parental Rights.

Your kids mean the world to you. Your child's parents are not together, and it’s difficult and probably scary to think through what this means for your children.

It is nearly impossible to anticipate future issues that may arise with your children, now that you and the other parent are separating. That's why we are here to help. Our experienced team can work with you to come up with a parenting plan that fits the needs of your unique family.

Families are not one-size-fits-all, and using a form parenting plan will inevitably land you back in Court, where you never wanted to be. We are here to help you get it right the first time. 

We will help you navigate the waters of parenting time (custody), decision-making authority, and child support.

We are available for your parental rights needs, including:

• Paternity

• Parenting time and schedule

• Parenting plan arrangements

• Child Support

• Decision-making authority 

• Holiday scheduling

• Parenting Exchanges

• Children's expenses

• Tax Dependency Issues

Modifications.

You've been through the Court system.  Now you have to go back.  Whether it's a modification of parenting time, decision-making, child support or maintenance (alimony).  We will help you navigate the complex world of modifications, including the legal standards necessary to re-open your case.  We will advise you regarding the possible benefits and risks of seeking a modification, and build your case to help you seek justice now that your circumstances have changed. 

People change and circumstances change. We can't guarantee that you'll never end up back in Court. But we can guarantee that, especially since you have already been through the Court system once,  we want to help you get it right so that you don't end up back in Court again.
