Legal Representation In Family Law Matters In Wheaton

Family law is a broad area of the law that includes a number of different legal issues beyond divorce. Our firm is skilled in representing clients in cases related to all of our practice areas. We routinely handle cases involving:

• Adoption — We help families grow by handling the legal aspects of formalizing the adoption. We work on all types of adoptions including related and non-related people.
• Civil unions — We represent same-sex and nontraditional opposite-sex couples in obtaining a civil union dissolution, which is very similar to a divorce.
• Domestic violence — We provide counsel for victims of domestic violence, particularly those who are going through a divorce.
• Orders of protection and restraining orders — We help domestic violence victims obtain an emergency restraining order as well as similar long-term protections following a hearing.
• Parentage and paternity — We help mothers and fathers identify and establish legal parentage of a child. We also help with subsequent issues such as child support, parental responsibilities (child custody) and child relocations.
• Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements — We work with clients seeking to protect themselves financially from the possibility of divorce in the future.

Our attorneys maintain close contact with clients throughout the duration of their case and help them make informed decisions all along the way. Our top priority is protecting our clients' rights and interests, as well as the rights and interests of their children.
