Family Law
We help families resolve issues with dignity and speed. Our practice focuses on agreed divorce, child custody and parenting time, child support, alimony/spousal support, adoption, and emergency protection through Pennsylvania Protection From Abuse (PFA) orders (temporary restraining orders against an abusive spouse/partner). We prioritize settlement first—using precise filings, practical negotiation, and court-ready advocacy when needed—so you get workable, child-focused solutions and predictable next steps.
Pennsylvania Family Law
Agreed (No-Fault) Divorce
Streamlined dissolution when both spouses agree on terms. We prepare and file the paperwork, finalize property/debt divisions, and secure the decree with minimal court time. Clear timelines, fixed steps, and settlement-first focus reduce stress and cost.
Custody (Legal & Physical)
Child-focused plans for decision-making and parenting time. We draft workable schedules, address holidays and travel, handle modifications/enforcement, and guide relocation requests. When needed, we present a concise best-interests case in court.
Child Support
Guideline-based support with practical add-ons. We calculate support under Pennsylvania rules and account for health insurance, childcare, and extracurriculars. We handle initial orders, modifications for changed circumstances, and enforcement of arrears.
Alimony / Spousal Support
Right-sized support based on needs, income, and case factors. We handle temporary support/APL during the case and post-divorce alimony at settlement or hearing. Expect clear budgeting, documentation, and focused negotiation.
Adoption
From petitions to finalization, we manage consents/terminations, clearances, and required reports. Stepparent and kinship adoptions receive tailored checklists to keep the process smooth and child-centered.
Protection From Abuse (PFA)
Emergency protection from an abusive spouse/partner. We file for immediate relief, prepare you for the prompt hearing, and seek orders for no contact, exclusive possession, custody terms, and firearms surrender where appropriate. Safety planning and court representation included.
