I focus exclusively on Massachusetts family law, including the areas of:
Divorce: I can assist you in all areas of divorce, including legal separations and matters of alimony or spousal support. Additionally, I can help you with the legal steps that you should take prior to telling your spouse you want a divorce. I can also give you advice on why it may be important to be the first to file for divorce and what obligations you may have in regard to paying for your children's college expenses after divorce. We also have a divorce coach on staff to help guide you through this difficult time.
Child custody issues: Whether you are married and seeking a divorce or are ending a relationship which involves mutual children, I can provide experienced legal representation in all areas of child custody, including the obligations of child support and when you can expect these obligations to cease. I can help you assert fathers' rights regarding visitation. I can also provide representation in the area of in-state parent/child relocation and out-of-state parent/child removal. I can also help assert grandparents' rights regarding grandchild visitation.
Property division: I provide legal representation for all aspects of property division, including debt and property valuation as well as distribution.
Other family law services: I also provide a wide variety of other family law services, including paternity issues, post-judgment modifications, contempt and post-judgment enforcement, and I provide representation and preparation for individuals who are going through the mediation process.
