Adoption, child abuse, child custody, child support, divorce, juvenile delinquency, neglect, parenting time, paternity, and spousal support make up only part of Family Law.

Children characterize divorces.  If you do not have a minor child, divorce is mainly about dividing assets and debts.  If you do have a minor child, there are also custody, parenting time, and support issues.

The North Star of disputes involving a child is the best interest of that child.  Many attorneys waste their client’s money by arguing for things that are not in the child’s best interest.  To achieve the best results, you must focus on your child and not the other parent.

Legal issues involving your child will exist for as long as your child is a minor and you are not married to the other parent.  Be sure to hire an attorney who responds to your needs and explains your options to you as circumstances change.
