Family

Family law has grown far beyond the divorce lawyer of old. Today, family law cases cover everything from child custody cases to prenuptial agreements to domestic violence restraining orders. If your issue involves family relationships, you need a family attorney.

If you have a family law issue, you need legal advice. Family law has two categories: before and during the marriage and law after the marriage. Whatever your problem is will determine the type of attorney you need.  

The adoption process is long and difficult. Many private adoption agencies have their own attorneys on retainer to ensure they have legal advice on standby. Adoptive parents should always consult an attorney before and during an adoption. Some adoptions, such as international adoptions, will require the services of specialized lawyers who know international law.
