Our Commitment to Family Law
Although our firm specializes in family law, we provide services in a variety of practice areas, including adoption, bankruptcy law, criminal law, personal injury, name changes and legal malpractice. Our experience is these other areas of law are critical to our representation of parties in a family law proceeding, as the matters frequently overlap. For example, it is not uncommon for parties getting a divorce to need to understand their options with respect to bankruptcy. Additionally, family law matters periodically include domestic violence allegations that could give rise to potential criminal charges and/or liability for personal injury damages. Being able to advise our clients in these other areas of law is an integral part of our ability to protect their interests
