Divorce

Our divorce lawyers are able to assist you with all of your divorce concerns including, property division, spousal support, child custody, child support, and visitation rights. It is important for you to take steps to make yourself happy if you have been endlessly trying to save your marriage and have had no real success.

Domestic Violence

If you or your children have been a victim of domestic violence, our attorneys will assist you with the various options that are available. We commonly help clients request restraining orders, emergency screenings, and kick-out orders through family court.

Child Abductions

It is important that you contact our office immediately if your child has been stolen by your spouse or partner. The police and district attorney's office will not act until you file papers for divorce or legal separation to prove that you should have custody of your children.

Child Custody

The court will look at what is in the best interest of the child when deciding child custody disputes. Child custody issues run more smoothly when the parents look at the child's needs and not their own.
