Our Practice Areas: Comprehensive Family Law Services
Our dedicated team specializes in a wide range of family law matters, providing comprehensive legal support to Atlanta families.
We have a deep understanding of Georgia's divorce and custody laws, as well as the local court system, which enables us to provide representation tailored to your specific needs.
Divorce
We guide clients through every stage of the divorce process, from straightforward uncontested agreements to complex, high-asset litigation. Our team builds a robust strategy focused on protecting your rights and achieving your goals for your finances, property, and children.
Child Custody & Visitation
We fiercely advocate for custody arrangements and parenting plans that serve your child's best interests while protecting your parental rights. Whether through negotiation or in court, we fight to secure your desired outcome in matters of physical custody, legal custody, and visitation schedules.
Child Support
We ensure child support is calculated fairly and accurately according to Georgia law, prioritizing the financial stability of your children. Our attorneys assist with establishing, modifying, and enforcing support orders to ensure your child receives the full financial backing they deserve.
Equitable Division of Marital Property
We protect your financial future by navigating the complexities of Georgia’s equitable division laws for all marital assets and debts. Our team provides meticulous analysis and assertive advocacy to secure a fair division of property, including real estate, businesses, and retirement accounts.
Alimony/Spousal Support
We represent clients on both sides of alimony cases, whether you are seeking spousal support or may be required to pay it. Our firm advocates for fair and just outcomes based on Georgia law to ensure our clients' financial needs are properly addressed.
Legitimation & Paternity
We assist unmarried fathers with legitimation actions to formally establish their legal rights to custody, visitation, and inheritance. Our compassionate guidance helps you secure your rightful place in your child's life and formalize your sacred parental bond.
Post-Judgment Modifications
As life changes, we help you petition the court to modify existing orders for custody, child support, or alimony. We provide the necessary legal guidance to ensure your agreements remain fair and relevant to your current circumstances.
Enforcement & Contempt Actions
When a party fails to comply with a court order, we take decisive legal action to protect your rights. Our attorneys file contempt motions to hold the non-compliant party accountable and enforce the terms of your custody or support agreement.
Protecting Your Interests in a Divorce
A divorce is more than just the end of a marriage; it's a process that legally separates two lives, with critical decisions to be made about finances, property, and, most importantly, children. Our team is committed to guiding you through this process with a focus on protecting what matters most.
We are dedicated to assisting with:
- Equitable Asset Division: Georgia law requires the equitable division of marital assets and debts. We work diligently to ensure that you receive a fair share, protecting your financial future.
- Alimony and Spousal Support: We help you navigate the complexities of alimony, ensuring that your financial needs are considered and that any spousal support order is fair and just based on your unique circumstances.
Navigating Post-Judgment Modifications and Contempt
Life doesn't stop after a divorce or custody order is finalized. Circumstances change, and sometimes a modification is necessary to ensure that the order still serves the best interests of everyone involved. Additionally, if you are facing a situation where the other party is not following the court's order, a contempt action may be necessary to enforce compliance. Our lawyers are here to provide the knowledgeable legal guidance and representation you need for both.
We are prepared to assist with:
- Modifications: Whether it’s a relocation, a change in employment, or a shift in your child’s needs, we can help you file for a modification to a custody or support order.
- Contempt Actions: If you find yourself facing a contempt action related to your divorce or custody order, our experienced lawyers are here to provide you with the legal guidance and representation you need to protect your rights.
