Family Law

Divorce
Child Support
Your family is of greater concern to you than any other facet of your life. The best thing you can do is to protect them and yourself. We have numerous experienced attorneys to guide you through the legal impact divorce, child custody, child support, division of assets, assignment of debts, and visitation with your minor children.
Child Custody and Visitation
Premarital Agreement
Our attorneys will explain these matters as well as help prepare you for your life after divorce. We can give you guidance as to whether or not spousal maintenance is appropriate, the division of accumulated marital retirement funds and how your credit can be affected if your spouse files for bankruptcy. We also advise couples considering marriage and explain how certain kinds of assets and property can be protected or excluded from marital property by use of Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements.
Guardianship
Supporting individuals and families in their personal financial and estate planning, our professionals offer cost effective, quality, responsive and extraordinary representation in a comfortable environment. We handle issues that families encounter from birth to death including tax planning, estate planning, probate, pre- and post-nuptial negotiation and preparation of agreements, domestic partnership agreements, guardianship and conservatorships. We represent all types of families, and recognize that the term “family” does not have one definition. As a result, we keep abreast of evolving legal issues in a changing family environment. Our services often involve a multi-disciplinary approach, drawing on the expertise of attorneys in other practice areas when necessary. For example, the real estate and business services groups offer guidance on sophisticated estate planning that involves family partnerships or real estate ventures, and the tax group offers expertise in estate planning and probate issues.
