I help people solve their family's legal problems.

 

People usually know what they want. They may want a divorce, or to defend themselves in a divorce.

 

They may want a paternity order, child support, more time with their kids, alimony, or a fair property division.

 

They also know what they don't want. They don't want their children to move away, for example. They certainly do not want harassment.

 

I help those who hire me reach their goals.

 

Although the legal process is designed to be reasonable and objective, instead it can seem arbitrary, exhausting, expensive and just plain unfair.

 

I help my clients navigate the legal process until they get the product the legal system offers them: a final court order that can stabilize their family and move it forward.

 

And once you have your court order, I can help you enforce it.

 

I can help you in all family law matters.

 

I can help you get a divorce, a paternity order, gain custody of your children, or secure parent-time.

 

I can help you divide property, debts and retirement savings.

 

And if you are taking care of your grandchildren, an elderly parent, or a disabled spouse or child, I can help you get a guardianship or a conservatorship or set up a special needs trust.
