About Josef
Biography
I am the sole attorney at the Law Offices of Josef A. Hirschmann III, Esquire . I focus my practice on family law, including but not limited to, divorce, equitable distribution, spousal support, alimony pendente lite, final alimony, custody, child support and exclusive possession of marital property. I also do a significant portion of work in the Orphans' Court, including adoptions and guardianships.
The other focus of my practice is in Estates and Trusts. I prepare both simple and complex estates and probate both simple and complex estates as well.
While, I focus my practice on family law, I have a vast network of colleagues who are able to assist clients with any issue they are facing, if I am unable to do so.
