Allentown Family Attorney
The idea of involving a lawyer or the court to help you resolve a family law matter can feel unnecessary, or even embarrassing. But the truth is that when the stakes are high and your future is on the line, engaging a lawyer is one of the smartest things that you can do. Our lawyers understand the delicate and sensitive nature of family law matters, and are committed to protecting your confidentiality and your best interests. Call our Allentown family attorneys today for a consultation and information about how we can help.
Our Family Law Practice Areas
Our family law lawyers are here to serve you in regard to a wide array of family law matters. Our family law practices areas include:
- Divorce. Filing for a divorce is one of the most common reasons that Allentown residents seek a family law attorney. We can represent you throughout the divorce process, and provide representation in regards to property division, spousal maintenance, and more.
- Child custody. If you are a parent who is not living with your child’s other parent, then child custody may be a very big deal. It is important that you establish your parental rights with the court and get a court order related to your right to spend time with your child and make decisions pertaining to your child’s life.
- Child support. When parents are not raising a child together under the same roof, the non-custodial parent will be responsible for making child support payments. Call our law firm to learn more about how child support is calculated and how to pursue support today.
- Domestic violence. If you are a victim of domestic violence, our lawyers urge you to find a safe location to take shelter immediately. Once you are safe, our lawyers can help you to pursue a domestic violence protection order, as well as other legal protections, such as custody of your child.
- LGBTQ family law matters. For individuals and couples who identify as LGBTQ, navigating the legal landscape may look slightly different than it does for straight, cisgender persons. We can assist you with marriage, divorce, adoption, and more.
