Child Custody

John Balent is a dedicated, skilled professional lawyer. He takes the time to clearly understand the needs of each child and to guide the parent through the system. He represented me for 3 years in obtaining custody of my children. My ex was violent and had signficant finances. I was lucky to have ...John represent me in meetings and in court. He worked to keep me and my children safe and helped me obtain a signed custody agreement and child support.
