Divorce is very difficult, even under the best of circumstances. We are prepared to litigate as necessary over issues including custody, alimony, spousal support, property division. However, we assist families to resolve their cases in a way to avoid contested hearings, if possible.

We help people when a loved one has died, to settle their estates. If there is no will, an heirship determination may be necessary. . We also draft wills, planning documents, and powers of attorney for families.

Family Law includes divorce, grandparent access, paternity, name changes, step parent adoptions, adult adoptions, child support determination among many other issues.

Guardianships help an individual that is underage or has a physical reason that they need help. The Court appoints a Guardian for the incapacitated person.
