Common questions
Answers, in plain language.
Many family matters resolve through negotiation or mediation. We pursue the calmest path that works and litigate when that path runs out.
Child and spousal support follow guidelines based on income and circumstances. We show you how the numbers are reached.
It depends on whether the matter is contested and how complex the issues are. We set out a timeline at the outset and update it as the matter moves.
