Child Custody and Support

At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we are dedicated to protecting the best interests of your children. We will work closely with you to help you secure a child custody and support arrangement that is fair and in the best interests of your children.

When it comes to child custody, our attorneys will help you understand your rights and options. We can assist you with negotiating a custody agreement with the other parent, or represent you in court if necessary. Our goal is to help you secure a custody arrangement that allows your children to have ongoing, meaningful relationships with both parents.

We also understand the importance of ensuring that your children have the financial support they need. Our attorneys can help you establish a child support order that is fair and in line with state guidelines. We will also help you enforce the terms of your child support order, if necessary.

At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we are committed to helping you and your children through the difficult and emotional process of divorce and custody disputes.

Alimony and Spousal Support

When it comes to divorce, one of the biggest concerns for many people is how they will financially support themselves after the marriage ends. Alimony, also known as spousal support, is a court-ordered payment from one spouse to the other to help them maintain their standard of living after the divorce.

At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have extensive experience handling alimony cases and can help you understand your rights and options when it comes to spousal support. We will work closely with you to gather the necessary information and evidence to support your case and negotiate with the other party to reach a fair and reasonable alimony agreement.

In many cases, alimony is awarded on a temporary basis until the receiving spouse is able to financially support themselves. However, in some cases, alimony may be awarded on a long-term basis, particularly if the receiving spouse is unable to work due to age or disability.

Our team will help you understand the factors that the court will consider when determining alimony, including the length of the marriage, the income and earning potential of both spouses, and any childcare or other expenses. We will also help you understand the tax implications of alimony and ensure that any agreements are in compliance with state laws.

Property Division

Another common concern in divorce is how to fairly divide the couple's property and assets. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we are experienced in handling all aspects of property division, from negotiating settlement agreements to litigating complex cases in court.

Our team will work closely with you to understand your unique financial situation and develop a plan for dividing your property in a fair and equitable manner. This may include dividing tangible assets like real estate, vehicles, and personal belongings, as well as intangible assets like bank accounts, investments, and retirement accounts.

In many cases, couples are able to reach a property division agreement through negotiation or mediation. However, if a fair agreement cannot be reached, our team is prepared to represent you in court and advocate for your interests.

We will help you understand the factors that the court will consider when dividing property, including the length of the marriage, the income and earning potential of both spouses, and any special circumstances, such as the presence of minor children. We will also help you understand the tax implications of property division and ensure that any agreements are in compliance with state laws.

Domestic Violence and Restraining Orders

Domestic violence is a serious issue that can have a profound impact on the lives of those involved. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we are dedicated to helping victims of domestic violence protect themselves and their loved ones.

If you are a victim of domestic violence, our team can help you obtain a restraining order, also known as a protective order, to keep your abuser away from you and your children. We will help you understand the requirements for obtaining a restraining order and guide you through the process of obtaining one.

A restraining order is a court order that prohibits the abuser from contacting or coming near the victim. It can also include other provisions, such as requiring the abuser to move out of the shared home and prohibiting them from possessing firearms.

In addition to helping you obtain a restraining order, our team can also assist with other legal issues related to domestic violence, such as child custody and support, alimony, and property division. We will provide compassionate and personalized legal support to help you navigate this difficult time.

Prenuptial and Postnuptial Agreements

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are legal contracts that outline the financial rights and responsibilities of each spouse in the event of a divorce or other legal separation. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have extensive experience drafting and negotiating prenuptial and postnuptial agreements for clients.

A prenuptial agreement, also known as a premarital agreement, is a contract that is entered into before a couple gets married. It typically outlines how property and assets will be divided in the event of a divorce or legal separation.

A postnuptial agreement, on the other hand, is a contract that is entered into after a couple is already married. It can be used to modify or clarify the terms of a prenuptial agreement or to address financial issues that have arisen since the couple got married.

At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, our team will work closely with you to understand your unique financial situation and draft a prenuptial or postnuptial agreement that meets your needs. We will ensure that the agreement is fair and reasonable and in compliance with state laws.

Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements can be an important tool for protecting your financial interests and ensuring that your rights are respected in the event of a divorce or legal separation.

Adoption

Adoption is a legal process that allows a child to become a part of a new family. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have extensive experience handling adoption cases and can help you navigate the complex legal process.

There are several different types of adoption, including domestic adoption, international adoption, and step-parent adoption. Our team can assist with all of these types of adoption and will help you understand the requirements and process for each.

In a domestic adoption, the child is placed with a new family within the United States. This can be through a private adoption agency or through the foster care system. Our team can assist with all aspects of the domestic adoption process, from finding a child to finalizing the adoption in court.

In an international adoption, the child is placed with a new family from a different country. This process can be complex and requires compliance with both U.S. and foreign laws. Our team has experience with international adoptions and can help you navigate the legal requirements and process.

In a step-parent adoption, a child's step-parent becomes their legal parent. This is typically done when the child's biological parent is unable or unwilling to care for the child and the step-parent is willing and able to assume the parental role. Our team can help with the legal process of step-parent adoption, including obtaining the consent of the biological parent and finalizing the adoption in court.

Adoption can be a rewarding experience for both the child and the adoptive parents. If you are considering adoption, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help. Contact us today to learn more about our adoption services.

Paternity

Paternity is the legal determination of a child's father. In some cases, paternity is clear and is not contested, such as when the parents are married at the time of the child's birth. In other cases, however, paternity may be uncertain or contested, and a legal determination may be necessary.

At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience handling paternity cases and can help you establish paternity if necessary. This is important for several reasons. First, establishing paternity is necessary for the child to have a legal father and to inherit from the father. Second, establishing paternity can also help clarify the rights and responsibilities of the father, such as child custody and support.

There are several ways to establish paternity, including through DNA testing or by signing a voluntary acknowledgement of paternity. Our team can help you understand the options for establishing paternity and assist with the process.

Guardianship

Guardianship is a legal relationship between a minor child and an adult who is responsible for the child's care and well-being. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have extensive experience handling guardianship cases and can help you understand your rights and options.

There are several types of guardianship, including temporary guardianship, permanent guardianship, and guardianship of the person and property. Our team can assist with all of these types of guardianship and will help you understand the requirements and process for each.

Temporary guardianship is typically granted when the child's parents are unable or unwilling to care for the child for a short period of time. This could be due to illness, incarceration, deployment, or other reasons. Our team can help you understand the requirements for obtaining temporary guardianship and guide you through the process.

Permanent guardianship, on the other hand, is intended to be a long-term arrangement and is typically granted when the child's parents are unable or unwilling to care for the child on a permanent basis. This could be due to death, abandonment, abuse, or other reasons. Our team can help you understand the requirements for obtaining permanent guardianship and assist with the legal process.

Guardianship of the person and property is a type of guardianship that combines both legal and financial responsibilities. This type of guardianship is typically granted when the child's parents are unable or unwilling to provide for the child's physical and financial needs. Our team can help you understand the requirements for obtaining guardianship of the person and property and assist with the legal process.

Guardianship can be a complicated and emotional legal process. If you are seeking guardianship of a minor, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help. Contact us today to learn more about our guardianship services.

Juvenile Law

Juvenile law is a specialized area of the law that deals with legal issues involving minors, such as delinquency, dependency, and child welfare. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience handling juvenile law cases and can help you understand your rights and options.

If a minor is accused of a crime, they may be charged with delinquency and may be subject to the juvenile justice system. This system is separate from the adult criminal justice system and is designed to rehabilitate minors rather than punish them. Our team can assist with delinquency cases and will advocate for the minor's rights and best interests.

In some cases, a minor may be found to be dependent, meaning that they are unable to care for themselves and are in need of protective services. This could be due to neglect, abuse, or other reasons. Our team can assist with dependency cases and will work to ensure that the minor's needs are met and that they are placed in a safe and nurturing environment.

Juvenile law can be complex and can have a profound impact on the minor's future. If you are dealing with a juvenile legal issue, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help.

Mediation and Alternative Dispute Resolution

Mediation and other forms of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) are often a more cost-effective and less contentious way to resolve family law disputes. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with mediation and other ADR methods and can help you understand your options.

Mediation is a form of ADR in which a neutral third party, known as a mediator, facilitates communication between the parties and helps them reach a mutually acceptable agreement. The mediator does not make decisions or impose solutions, but rather helps the parties communicate and negotiate in a constructive way.

Mediation can be a useful tool in resolving a variety of family law disputes, including divorce, child custody and support, and property division. Our team can assist with the mediation process and provide legal advice and representation during the mediation sessions.

In addition to mediation, there are other forms of ADR that may be useful in resolving family law disputes. These include arbitration, collaborative law, and early neutral evaluation. Our team can help you understand the differences between these methods and determine which approach may be best for your situation.

Collaborative Law

Collaborative law is a specialized form of alternative dispute resolution (ADR) that is designed to resolve family law disputes in a cooperative and non-adversarial manner. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with collaborative law and can help you understand how this approach may benefit your situation.

In a collaborative law case, the parties and their attorneys commit to resolving the dispute through negotiation and collaboration rather than through litigation. This means that the parties agree to work together in good faith to find a mutually acceptable solution and to avoid going to court.

The collaborative law process typically involves a series of meetings between the parties and their attorneys, as well as other professionals such as financial advisors and therapists. The goal of these meetings is to identify the parties' interests and concerns and to find creative solutions that address their needs.

Collaborative law can be a beneficial approach for a variety of family law disputes, including divorce, child custody and support, and property division. It can help the parties reach a resolution in a timely and cost-effective manner, while also minimizing the emotional toll of the dispute.

If you are considering collaborative law for a family law dispute, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help.

International Family Law

International family law is a complex and specialized area of the law that deals with legal issues involving multiple countries and jurisdictions. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with international family law and can help you navigate this challenging area of the law.

International family law issues can arise in a variety of contexts, including divorce, child custody and support, and adoption. In these cases, the legal rights and obligations of the parties may be governed by the laws of multiple countries and may be subject to international treaties and conventions.

Our team has the knowledge and experience to handle international family law cases and can assist with the legal complexities involved. We can help you understand your rights and obligations under the applicable laws and can provide representation in international courts and tribunals, if necessary.

If you are dealing with an international family law issue, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help.

Same-Sex Marriage and Domestic Partnerships

Same-sex marriage and domestic partnerships are legal relationships that provide many of the same rights and benefits as traditional marriage. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with same-sex marriage and domestic partnerships and can help you understand your rights and options.

Same-sex marriage is legal in many countries and jurisdictions, and provides same-sex couples with the same legal rights and benefits as opposite-sex couples. This includes the right to marry, the right to inherit, the right to adopt children, and the right to receive spousal support and other benefits.

Domestic partnerships, on the other hand, are legal relationships that provide some, but not all, of the rights and benefits of marriage. Domestic partnerships are typically available to same-sex and opposite-sex couples who are not married but who are in a committed and intimate relationship. Domestic partnerships may provide the right to certain benefits such as health insurance, but may not provide the same rights as marriage.

If you are in a same-sex marriage or domestic partnership, or are considering entering into one, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys is here to help.

Grandparents' Rights

Grandparents have the right to seek visitation or custody of their grandchildren in certain circumstances. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with grandparents' rights cases and can help you understand your options.

In general, grandparents have the right to seek visitation or custody of their grandchildren if the parents are deceased, divorced, or separated, or if the child has been neglected or abused. Grandparents may also have the right to seek visitation or custody if it is in the best interests of the child.

If you are a grandparent seeking visitation or custody of your grandchildren, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys can assist you with the legal process. We can help you understand your rights and can provide representation in court, if necessary.

Parental Relocation

Parental relocation refers to the situation where a parent wants to move with a child to a new residence that is outside of the child's current school district or a reasonable distance from the other parent. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with parental relocation cases and can help you understand your rights and options.

In general, a parent who wants to relocate with a child must first obtain the consent of the other parent or a court order. If the other parent does not consent to the relocation, the relocating parent must demonstrate to the court that the move is in the best interests of the child.

If you are a parent considering a relocation with your child, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys can assist you with the legal process. We can help you understand your rights and can provide representation in court, if necessary.

Surrogacy and Assisted Reproductive Technology

Surrogacy and assisted reproductive technology (ART) are legal and medical processes that can help individuals and couples who are unable to conceive or carry a child to have a biological child. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with surrogacy and ART cases and can help you understand your rights and options.

Surrogacy is a legal arrangement in which a woman carries and gives birth to a child for another person or couple. Surrogacy can be traditional, in which the surrogate is the biological mother of the child, or gestational, in which the surrogate carries an embryo created using the intended parents' or donors' eggs and sperm.

Assisted reproductive technology, on the other hand, refers to medical procedures that help individuals and couples conceive a child. This can include in vitro fertilization (IVF), in which eggs and sperm are fertilized outside of the body, and other assisted reproduction methods such as sperm or egg donation.

If you are considering surrogacy or assisted reproductive technology, the team at Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys can help you understand the legal and medical aspects of these processes.

Family Law Appeals

If you are dissatisfied with the outcome of a family law case, you may have the option to appeal the decision to a higher court. At Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys, we have experience with family law appeals and can help you understand your rights and options.

The appeals process typically involves filing a notice of appeal with the court that issued the original decision, and then presenting your case to a higher court, such as a court of appeals or a supreme court. The higher court will review the record of the original case and decide whether the lower court's decision was correct.

The appeals process can be complex and time-consuming, and is subject to strict deadlines and procedural rules. It is important to consult with an experienced attorney if you are considering an appeal of a family law decision.

With Helping Hand Family and Divorce Attorneys on your side, you can feel confident that your case is in the hands of experienced and skilled legal professionals. Contact us today to schedule a consultation and learn more about how we can help with your family law needs.
