Our Major Practice Areas

No one decides to get married with the expectation of eventually divorcing; however, as time goes by, people and situations change, and when they do, divorce sometimes becomes not only possible but necessary.

When parents divorce, separate or decide to forego marriage entirely, issues often arise regarding how to best provide for the needs of their child.

Both parents have a duty to financially support their children. Generally, child support is based on statewide guidelines and intended to provide for a child’s day-to-day needs.

Are you a birth mother seeking to establish paternity for your child in order to receive child support and other financial assistance? Are you a biological father seeking to establish parental rights through the paternity legal process?

Are your wishes and goals being respected during divorce discussions about division of marital assets? If you owned a house before your marriage and a joint checking account pays the mortgage, is the house considered a non-marital asset?

Resolving family law issues can be expensive and emotionally draining. Most families look for cost-effective and efficient solutions to their divorce, child custody or child support issues.
