Frequently Asked Questions

What types of family law cases do you handle?

We handle a wide range of family law matters, including divorce (contested and uncontested), child custody and visitation, child support, spousal support, division of property, prenuptial agreements, and restraining orders. Our attorneys are experienced in navigating the complexities of family law to protect your rights and interests.

How do you determine child custody arrangements?

Child custody is determined based on the best interests of the child. Factors such as the child's age, health, emotional ties with parents, and the parents’ ability to provide care are considered. We work with you to present your case in the best possible light and ensure that the arrangement serves the child’s well-being.

What factors influence the division of assets during a divorce?

The division of assets depends on various factors, including the length of the marriage, the financial and non-financial contributions of each spouse, and the needs of each party. We help ensure that your property is fairly divided based on these criteria and any other relevant circumstances.

Can you assist with obtaining or contesting restraining orders?

Yes, we assist clients in both obtaining and contesting restraining orders in cases of domestic violence or harassment. We understand the urgency of these matters and work quickly to protect your safety or your rights.

What is the process for modifying child support or spousal support orders?

Modifying child or spousal support orders requires showing that there has been a significant change in circumstances, such as a change in income or financial needs. Our firm can guide you through the process and help you seek the appropriate modification.

What criminal defense services do you offer?

We offer comprehensive criminal defense for a wide range of charges, including DUI, domestic violence, drug offenses, theft, assault, and more. Our team focuses on minimizing penalties and protecting your rights, using a variety of defense strategies including negotiation and trial advocacy.

How do you approach defending clients against DUI charges?

Defending against DUI charges involves reviewing the legality of the stop, the accuracy of breathalyzer tests, and potential procedural errors. We carefully analyze all evidence and circumstances surrounding your case to build a strong defense aimed at reducing or dismissing charges.

What are the potential penalties for domestic violence convictions?

Penalties for domestic violence convictions can include fines, probation, mandatory counseling, protective orders, and even jail time. The severity of the penalty depends on the charges and the circumstances of the case. We work diligently to minimize the impact of these charges on your future.

Can you help expunge or seal my criminal record?

Yes, we assist clients in pursuing expungements or sealing of their criminal records, which can offer relief from the long-term consequences of having a criminal history. Eligibility for expungement depends on factors like the type of offense and the time that has passed since the conviction.

How do you handle cases that involve both family law and criminal law issues?

Our firm is well-equipped to handle cases that involve both family law and criminal law matters, such as domestic violence accusations during a divorce or custody battle. We have the experience to manage overlapping issues and provide comprehensive representation in both areas to ensure the best possible outcome.
