Family law is a practice area that encompasses the legal issues that face families. These issues include:

Divorce Spousal support Child support Custody Adoption Termination of parental rights Paternity Dependency and child neglect Protection from abuse Division of assets and liabilities due to divorce

Family law encompasses a broad range of legal topics involving marriage and children.

Common family law subjects include divorce or annulment, child custody and visitation rights, child support payments, and spousal support / alimony.

Family law specifically deals with children in regards to adoption, guardianship, and state child protection, and domestic violence and restraining orders for adults.

Family law matters are often complex and are usually handled during periods of high stress and emotion. It can be difficult to make life-impacting decisions under such circumstances.

Divorce is the end of a legal marriage. To get a divorce, you must go through a legal process and get a court order that says the marriage has ended.

A divorce is a legal action between married people to terminate their marriage relationship. It can be referred to as dissolution of marriage and is basically, the legal action that ends the marriage before the death of either spouse.

An experienced attorney should be able to help you see the larger issues at play and provide the advice you need to make informed decisions about your future.

What is Family Law Mediation?

Family law mediation, or family mediation, is a type of method used to resolve family disputes.  In family mediation, a neutral, third party mediator helps the two parties smooth out their differences and reach agreements on various points of contention. 

While family mediation can save the parties time and costs associated with trial, the decisions reached may not be legally binding, as the process is somewhat informal. 

In family law, you can be more than a lawyer assessing and advising a client on their legal rights. You can help an individual through one of the most stressful experiences in life. It is very rewarding to know you've helped someone through such a difficult time.
