Family Law and domestic relations is a broad category of law dealing with a multitude of issues and litigation. This does include divorce; however, it also includes issues before and after divorce and many that are not the result of divorce. These issues may include a prenuptial or post-nuptial agreement for individuals concerned with protecting their assets during a possible divorce; issues of contempt to enforce orders of the court not being followed by one or both of the parties; modifications of orders dealing with custody visitation and/or support both child support and spousal alimony; issues of paternity and custody necessary to determine the biological parent and the support obligations that are inherent in this action; adoptions whether consensual or not, which can be brought by a relative; guardianships and power of attorneys, necessary for temporary arrangements; protective orders necessary as the result of domestic violence; juvenile matters of dependency and deprivation, which can be private actions or actions initiated by the state through the Department of Family and Children Services (DFCS); and legitimation actions with all of the issues of visitation, custody and support necessary for preserving the legal rights of fathers. Family Law and domestic relations are the most intimate, emotional and demanding practice of law in all legal specialties. There is no other field of law that requires such a broad range of expertise on multiple issues that so dramatically affect a client on a personal level. This is not litigation over money owed, contracts breached or damage suffered as the result of an accident, this is litigation to end a marriage, decide the fate of children and assist in the financial well-being of all parties in the future. This is personal law and law that has an immediate and direct effect on people and children’s lives.

And, regardless of what court we go to one thing remains constant, our clients have never been forced into bankruptcy to pay for the representation they need. An experienced family law attorney understands your particular situation and more importantly has a strong idea of the eventual outcome and how to get there. As a result, an attorney with this knowledge can work with a budget that is realistic and not one that promotes endless litigation and destructive costs. Your domestic matter, whether it be a divorce, child support or a custody modification dispute does not have to leave you with the extra burden of financial ruin.
