Divorce & Separation 30%

Child custody 20%

Child custody is usually part of an ongoing divorce case, but many times it can become an issue after, or even before the divorce. It is an expensive ordeal for most people, not merely for the attorneys fees, but in paying for psychological evaluations and court testimony, along with guardian ad litem costs. Anyone contemplating a custody battle must understand the costs involved and be prepared to go the distance, if they really want to be successful.

Appeals 20%

I have well over one hundred reported cases, which can all be found on Westlaw or other legal search engines. My appellate work is not just in family law, but extends to all phases of civil law, in both state and federal courts.

Alimony 20% 44 Years

Alimony usually is not a separate practice area. It is part and parcel of a divorce case, where there is a "long-term" marriage.

Adoption 5%

stepparent and family adoptions only. No 3rd party adoptions.

Child support 5%

Child support is a big part of any divorce case where there are minor children, or even "adult children," where there are severe disabilities.
