Family Law

Our family law attorneys assist and guide clients through very emotional and turbulent times in their lives. We take the time to educate our clients on all issues related to their case in order to enable them to make the important decisions they are facing with confidence. We pride ourselves on addressing each client’s individual needs and getting to know our clients.

Knowing our clients, their concerns and goals, is critically important to providing the best possible practical and legal solutions to the particular family issue facing a client. In addition to providing first-class legal counsel, we believe that a cornerstone of great representation in all family law matters is being a source of support, strength and knowledge during these most difficult times.

The breakdown of a personal relationship can be devastating. The emotional upheaval is accompanied by a need for clients to make numerous informed decisions that affect both the short and long term. These decisions involve important and sometimes complex legal and financial issues. One important thing for every client to understand is that many of the decisions that you are making now, during this difficult time, will affect you and your children’s long term futures. This is why you need an attorney with the skill and knowledge to educate you on the legal options available at every stage of your case and to assist you in making the best possible decisions based upon your individual circumstances.

We take a similar, hands on, caring and supportive approach in all family law matters, including child custody, child and spousal support, the adoption of a child or the preparation of premarital agreements.

Our representations in family law matters include, but are not limited to:

  • Divorce/ Separation
  • Child Custody
  • Support Issues
    • Child Support
    • Spousal Support/ Alimony
  • Equitable Distribution
    • Marital property / non-marital property
    • Valuation of Business Interests
    • Qualified and non- qualified retirement accounts
    • Real Estate
