No one wants to read this page, and yet you are here. The most important relationship in your life has not turned out the way you expected, and certainly not the way you wanted. You are full of questions:
What do I do now?
What happens to the children?
How much support will I get or pay?
Who keeps the house or other property?
I need to move out now. What do I do?
I'm scared! Where do I turn for help?
The last question is the easiest to answer, of course, because we are here to help! This website is an introduction into the family law services we provide and how we can help you navigate through the family law courts. We have over 25 years of experience helping thousands of family law clients with divorce, custody, paternity and domestic violence cases. Our goal is to provide aggressive, extremely competent and value-oriented services that meet your needs not only in today’s crisis, but for years to come.
The corona virus and social isolation have put an unprecedented strain on families and the courts. People are forced to be together much more than they ever were before, and, unfortunately, that is not always a good thing. The tension that builds in a bad relationship now has no escape. The domestic violence that couldn’t be hidden before is now locked behind closed doors. The substance abuse that could be managed before is now out of control. The income you relied on has vanished, along with all hope of saving the relationship. Don’t wait until the social isolation restrictions have been lifted to do something. Learn what your rights are and protect yourself. Contact us for a free 30-minute consultation to see how we can help you right now. |
