Family Law

• Divorce
  Our mission is to provide our clients with excellent legal and mediation services; to promote an understanding of the law and the options available to our clients; to preserve our clients resources (emotional, physical and financial) through constructive and lasting conflict resolution and legal planning.  We strive to provide each client with the legal guidance and strategies to overcome their challenges, plan for their future and to achieve their goals.  Our practice focuses primarily on family and divorce law, adoption, estate planning/estate administration, and mediation.
• Child Support
• Child Custody and Visitation
  We used Peacemakers Mediation Services to mediate our divorce, and would highly recommend Ms. Lesko.  She used her considerable knowledge of family law to help us settle matters of child custody, support, and division of assets.  I never felt as though she pushed her own recommendation on us.  Rather, she helped us come to our own conclusions (which led to a final settlement) by helping us understand how the law may apply in different situations.  She also helped us to never forget that the most important factor in our divorce was to make sure we continue to be strong parents for our daughter, and whatever outcome we settle on should have our child’s well being in mind.  She was compassionate during the times when we were struggling emotionally, practical and direct when she needed to be, but above all, patient and professional.
