Our Service Areas
Guardianship
Guardianship is a legal arrangement in which one person (the guardian) is appointed to make decisions and provide care for another person (the ward or minor), who is usually unable to make decisions or care for themselves due to age, incapacity, or disability. Guardianship is often used to protect the well-being and interests of individuals who are unable to manage their own affairs.
Modification of Orders
Modification of orders refers to the process of making changes or adjustments to legal orders or agreements that have been previously established by a court. These orders or agreements can cover various aspects of family law, such as child custody, child support, spousal support, visitation rights, and more.
Child Support
Child support is a financial obligation that one parent may have to provide for the financial needs of their child when the parents are divorced, separated, or not living together. Child support is typically paid by the non-custodial parent (the parent with whom the child spends less time) to the custodial parent (the parent with whom the child primarily resides).
Mediation
Mediation is a process of conflict resolution in which a neutral third party, known as a mediator, helps disputing parties reach a mutually acceptable agreement. Mediation is often used as an alternative to traditional litigation or court proceedings. It allows parties to communicate and collaborate in order to find solutions to their disagreements.
Parent Timesharing
Parent timesharing, also known as parenting time or visitation, refers to the schedule and arrangement that determines how children spend time with each parent after a divorce or separation. Parent timesharing is a critical component of child custody arrangements, and it outlines when and where the children will be with each parent.
Name Changes
Name Changes: Family law encompasses the process of legally changing a person's name, whether due to marriage, divorce, personal preference, or other reasons.
