In addition to helping people through a divorce, our family law attorneys provide services in other areas. These include paternity — our attorneys have become skilled at working with DNA testing. We arrange for private adoptions, including stepparent adoptions, and secure consent for termination of parental rights from the birth parent. We undertake annulments, prenuptial agreements, separate maintenance agreements, and name changes.
Although we litigate unresolved issues when needed, we also try to arrive at an amicable resolution whenever possible. We take advantage of state-required alternative dispute resolution (ADR) services, including mediation. Because of our concern for the well-being of any children involved, we encourage the parties to resolve disputes around visitation and custody with ADR techniques.
