Divorce and Separation 70%

Divorces are filled with complex legal, financial, and emotional issues that vary from case to case. It might be an amicable split or a complicated one; either way, it is recommended to have someone familiar with divorce law to walk you through this.

70%
Child Custody 20%

The biggest issue that comes from two parents separating is determining child custody; and whether the parents can agree to custody or a court must step in, best interest of the child, or children involved must be considered.

Excellent and Knowledgeable

Mr. Rantisi has provided me with competent and informed guidance regarding my case. I live out of state, he and his staff have made it easy for me to complete consultations by telephone. I am confident in the advice he has provided. I highly recommend him for your family legal needs. While he has p...rovided 2 consultations, I will hire him if the issues warrant representation in court.

Superb Lawyer with an immense understanding of Family law and Divorce proceedings

I consulted with Mr. Rantisi on a number of small issues arising from a divorce. Yazan made himself available to me immediately following out first meeting. His professionalism and attentiveness to my needs were exactly what I needed to navigate an unfortunate situation. He was also impressively good... with explaining the different legal concepts, so that i was not in the dark about what was going on. I cannot recommend him enough, I will be sending all of my family and friends to him if the need arises.
