Every area we handle involves a child somewhere in the picture. Start with the one closest to your situation, or schedule a case evaluation and we will sort it out together.
When a family changes shape and the children still need two parents.
Divorce changes your home, your finances, and how you parent, often all at once. We help you protect your children and make clear, informed decisions about what comes next.
Custody in Florida is now referred to as time-sharing and parental responsibility. We help parents in Miami-Dade and Broward build and protect parenting plans that keep children at the center.
Whether you need support to care for your children or you have been asked to pay it, you deserve a clear picture of how the numbers work. We help parents in Miami-Dade and Broward understand, request, and change child support orders.
Whether you are a father who wants a legal relationship with your child or a mother who needs support, establishing paternity is often the first step. We help both parents understand their rights and move forward.
If you and your spouse want to end your marriage without a courtroom fight, collaborative divorce may be worth a conversation. It is designed for families who want to solve problems together, with the children’s needs in view.
Mediation gives parents a chance to make their own decisions about their children and their future instead of leaving everything to a judge. Our firm can help in one of two ways: as your neutral mediator, or as your attorney at mediation.
When a child’s safety is in question, or the court needs to hear the child’s side.
If DCF has contacted your family, removed a child, or told you to come to court, you are probably scared and unsure what happens next. A dependency case is a case DCF brings when it believes a child is unsafe, and you do not have to face it alone.
Whether DCF is asking the court to end your rights or you are thinking about a voluntary surrender so a stepparent or relative can adopt, this is one of the hardest moments a family can face. We will walk through it with you calmly and honestly.
Maybe you just learned a guardian ad litem was appointed in your case, or you are wondering whether to ask for one. Either way, you want to know who this person is and what they will tell the judge about your children.
If you are in immediate danger, call 911 now. When you are safe, we can help you understand your options, whether you are asking the court for protection or responding to a petition filed against you.
When a grandparent, relative, or new parent steps in for a child.
When a parent is in treatment, incarcerated, deployed, or unable to care for a child, a grandparent or relative often steps in. We help you get the legal authority to care for that child day to day.
Adoption is one of the happiest reasons to go to family court. We handle the legal steps with care so you can focus on your child and the family you are building.
