Advocating for Your Family Law Interests

For many people in Lakeland and elsewhere in Florida, issues regarding divorce, child custody, father’s rights, and other family law matters are highly sensitive.

In many cases, divorcing spouses will have disagreements about the future of their children, and both of them will feel strongly about protecting their right to shape their children’s upbringing. When it comes to the long-term wellbeing of your family and you, it is crucial to retain an experienced divorce attorney in the Lakeland area.

Family law is comprised of many different types of cases including but not limited to:

  • Divorce
  • Child Custody
  • Paternity
  • Child Support
  • Alimony
  • Prenuptial and antenuptial agreements
  • Modifications of previous family law court orders

Dealing with divorce issues, child custody, and support, and other family law issues can often be stressful and confusing. Pursuing a family law matter in court often requires gathering up a significant amount of financial paperwork, drafting required forms and affidavits, and other matters that a knowledgeable attorney can help guide you through.

While some cases may be settled without a trial, other cases will need the court to make a decision when the parties are in disagreement. A skilled trial lawyer can represent your interest both in settlement negotiations and at trial, along with gathering the necessary evidence and documentation to adequately prepare your case.

If you have questions regarding your Family Law legal needs, make sure your legal rights are protected.
