Wilkes-Barre and Kingston, PA Family Law Attorney

Experienced Guidance for divorce, adoption or other family matters

Family law is a broad term for any legal matter that pertains to family, including divorce, spousal support, child support, Alimony Pendente Lite (APL), alimony, child custody, adoption, protection from abuse, domestic violence, prenuptial and postmarital agreements, and grandparent rights. When your family’s security and future are on the line, having an experienced lawyer on your side to protect your interests and help you though the process can make all the difference in the world. Family law issues are emotional and stressful. Let us guide you so that you can focus on moving forward towards your new life.

We aim to help you take care of your family law issue as quickly and efficiently as possible. While we will always make sure that your rights are protected, we do not encourage unnecessary or excessive conflict as it is not constructive and it is extremely expensive. We aim to help you work through the divorce process and protect your children from as much stress and duress as possible. We understand that this process is hard for you as well and will keep open lines of communication with you and ensure you are comfortable with what is happening currently and know what to expect next. We have extensive experience handling every aspect of divorce, including:

Adding to the family

Divorce is not the only reason you might need a family lawyer. If you are thinking about adoption, or have decided to adopt a child talking to an attorney is a good first step. The adoption process can be both exciting and terrifying at the same time, especially the first time through it. I have successfully helped all types of couples adopt infants and children. With more than a decade of legal experience, I see and understand how nervous prospective parents are and do everything I can to alleviate their concerns during the adoption process.

My firm also represents birth parents seeking good and loving homes for their unborn children. We give them the compassion and understanding they need at a difficult time in their lives. We explain the entire process step by step so that, as a birth parent, you can feel comfortable knowing you are making the right decision for your baby, and know what to expect through the process. We answer all your questions and alleviate all your concerns.

If it is important to you to know your child is well after adoption and that you are making the right decision, we will guide you as to your rights under PA's Act 101 law and assist you in entering any post adoption contracts for contact with your child after adoption.

No matter what your family law problem is, you can feel safe and confident that you are getting quality legal care from a law firm concerned with solving your problem.
