Our Services for Divorce and Family Law Cases
You can trust us to deliver solid legal support both in court and behind the scenes, as we handle such cases as:
Divorce: Making the decision to dissolve your marriage is not easy, but we will be at your side to address the key issues in a New York divorce, including:
- Property division, in which all marital assets acquired during the marriage are divided according to the interests of fairness;
- Alimony for a lower earning spouse, as a way to balance the financial disparities between the parties; and,
- Custody, visitation, and support for minor children.
Family Law: We are also ready to assist with cases involving:
- Paternity of a child born to parents who are unmarried;
- Prenuptial agreements to address property division and alimony in the event of divorce;
- Adoption, including stepparent, domestic, and international adoptions;
- Domestic violence cases and restraining orders; and,

Resolving Family Law and Divorce Disputes
Even when disagreements arise in the above areas, it may not be necessary to go to court.

- Consulting with you about the laws and your objectives;
- Developing a strategy and gathering evidence to support your position;
