Do I need a Family Lawyer?

Each case is different, but we can share what clients typically struggle with when they make their initial calls to us:

My Spouse Wants a Divorce
My Marriage Has Fallen Apart And Cannot Be Fixed
I Am Expecting a Child Out Of Wedlock
I Have Fallen Behind on Child Support Due to Unemployment or salary reduction
My Circumstances Have Changed Drastically And Think A Change Of Custody Is Warranted
My Ex Announced They Want to Move Away and Take Our Child

How much will my Divorce or Child Custody matter cost me?

The financial aspect of family law matters can be terrifying because it has been historically known as a black hole of billing with retainers and hourly charges for things like emails and texts. Peel back further uncertainty by Estimating Your Legal Fees.
