Family law is a legal practice area covering many issues that have an impact on our state's family units. Most people think divorce when they hear about family law, but did you know that the field covers many other issues as well?

We would like to encourage our readers to learn about the positive ways a lawyer in this field can enrich your life. For example, if you want to expand your family, we can help with adoption and even foster care. Staying in line with the expansion of family topic, we can also assist with legal issues related to having a child via surrogacy.

For those who want to share their lives without getting married, a family law attorney can help with domestic partnerships, civil unions and cohabitation agreements. At the same time, we are also knowledgeable about marital issues such as prenuptial agreements, postnuptial agreements and the protection of personal property.

Unfortunately, you cannot discuss family law without mentioning some of the more painful elements of the field. These include spousal support, child custody and child support negotiations as well as domestic violence and, of course, divorce.
