Family law

Our Family Law Practice

We are sensitive to the special needs and interests raised by legal proceedings concerned with family relationships and changes in life circumstances. Services that we provide include:  

• Pre-separation planning and legal separations
• Dissolution of marriage and pre-dissolution planning
• Child support and custody modifications, including college expense issues
• Enforcement of unpaid child support and property settlement obligations
• Contested divorce proceedings
• Juvenile court matters such as delinquency and paternity
• Adoptions
• Pre-marital and cohabitation contracts
• Negotiation, mediation and litigation in trial courts and on appeal

 In contrast to a stereotypical family law practice, Lawrence Law Office maintains respect for the dignity of clients and their families, and treats each case individually.

We employ a team approach by which at least two attorneys are familiar with each case in order to facilitate access and quick responses to emergency situations, and we regularly work with experts such as psychologists and private investigators to implement multi-faceted solutions.
