FAMILY LAW

Family law is an area of the law that deals with family-related issues and domestic relations including:

• the nature of marriage, civil unions, and domestic partnerships;
• issues arising throughout marriage, including spousal abuse, legitimacy, adoption, surrogacy, child abuse, and child abduction
• the termination of the relationship and ancillary matters including divorce, annulment, property settlements, alimony, and parental responsibility orders (child custody and visitation, child support and alimony awards).

This list is by no means dispositive of the potential issues that come through the family court system as it is an area of law that is wide and varied and requires the skill and compassion of a lawyer experienced in the many facets involved.
