Family Court Matters

When parties are unable to come to an agreement on their own with respect to their separation including child support, spousal support, decision-making for children, parenting time, and property division, they can look to the Court to seek judicial input on the matter. While our team of lawyers understands that reaching an amicable settlement outside of Court may be the best solution for families, it is sometimes necessary to take our clients’ cases to Court.
