Family Law

• Divorce
  We provide mediation services for those who wish to utilize a less litigious means of divorcing. Mediation is a voluntary, confidential process through which the people involved in a conflict can sit down with a trained, certified neutral third party to resolve their conflict. Divorce can be a difficult decision and a painful process. When separation and divorce become inevitable, it is possible to design a process in which you and your spouse peacefully and civilly work together to make the transition. Divorce mediation is a collaborative effort between separating spouses and a mediator to develop an agreement that represents the best possible outcomes for all family members.
• Child Support
  Do not use the children as “message carriers†or spies to get information about the other parent or to send information to the other parent. Don’t cross-examine the children when they return from the other parent’s home. Don’t use the children to collect child support. Strive for agreement on major decisions about your child’s welfare and discipline, so one parent isn’t undermining the other.
• Child Custody and Visitation
  Use common sense in exercising your custodial and visitation rights. Follow the old adage: Do not make a mountain out of a molehill. Follow the Golden Rule: Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.

• Spousal Support
  Get a Temporary Order put in place as soon as possible. A temporary order will restrain the sale of property, require insurance policies to be maintained, sets child support, puts a temporary parenting plan in place, awards spousal maintenance, and sets up other temporary rules pending the finalization of your case. There is simply no substitute for a temporary order when it comes to protecting your rights. The only way to get a temporary order is to first file a Petition for Dissolution. A good divorce lawyer will file all of the initial pleadings on your behalf and get a temporary order for you.
