The family law attorneys at Markowitz Gravelle, LLP understand the anxiety caused by a divorce or other change in your family. Our family law attorneys offer experienced, compassionate legal services to men and women. Our family law firm is capable of assisting you with a full range of issues, including:
Divorce - Marriage is a legal relationship between two people. Many legal matters arise when a marriage is to be dissolved. We can help you reach an agreeable settlement in your divorce. Our divorce lawyers have the experience and creativity to understand the difficulties that arise and the flexibility to help you discover new ways to cope during this stressful time.
Mediation Services - We feature attorney Kimberly Jinks, a certified family law mediator with extensive experience and a reputation for fairness. Please contact us to discuss family law mediation for your clients.
Property Division - When a couple has been married for any length of time, it is likely that they have obtained assets together. If the marriage is dissolved, those assets need to be valued and divided in a manner that is fair and considers the needs of both parties. Because our family law attorneys have extensive experience with divorce, they are skilled in the identification, valuation, and division of marital property, including homes and real estate, retirement benefits and pensions, stocks and investments, cars and boats, and household goods and personal property.
Prenuptial Agreements - Prenuptial agreements help couples start off with a feeling of security and with the added benefit of an open approach to their finances. Our family law firm is experienced in preparing prenuptial agreements and can draft the right document for any client, regardless of their pre-marital assets.
Adoption - Adoptive parents accept all the challenges, rights, and responsibilities of parenthood. The adoption process can be a maze of legal twists and turns. Our firm’s lawyers know what it takes to navigate the adoption process quickly and efficiently and can help you bring your new family together with minimum delay.
Custody & Visitation - When working toward the right visitation schedule or deciding where the children should live, each party should have a custody lawyer who is knowledgeable of the state custody standards and who is sensitive to the concerns of both adults and children.
Child Support - It is undisputed that divorce has emotional implications on the family. Financial implications can be almost as daunting. Because each state has a unique formula for determination of Child Support amounts, you need proactive representation to help you reach a fair agreement regarding child support. Our efficient child support attorneys work to help you reduce the legal costs of establishing and enforcing child support obligations.
Paternity - Establishing paternity is financially important and establishes parental rights as well as contributes to a child's sense of identity. Markowitz Gravelle, LLP has access to the resources to help establish paternity or to set the record straight when paternity has been incorrectly asserted.
Alimony / Maintenance - Alimony is an allowance which a husband or wife pays to the other spouse for maintenance while they are separated or after they are divorced. As with other aspects of a divorce settlement, calculating amounts and determining if alimony is appropriate can be confusing. Be sure to hire an attorney who has experience in dealing with alimony as part of the dissolution agreement.
