The firm, counted
Six people you'll actually meet
A family case runs for months. We keep the team small, so the people you meet in the first week are still there at the end.

What we handle
Four kinds of family case, and nothing else
Most families come in with a mix of these. We take it as one case, with one team.
Divorce and mediation
Splitting the home, the debts, the retirement accounts and the weeks with the kids. Mediated where it can be, argued in court where it has to be.
Divorce and mediationCustody and parenting time
A parenting plan the children can live with: school nights, holidays, a move to a new city, and a change when the old plan stops working.
Custody and parenting timeChild and spousal support
Support worked out from real pay stubs and real costs, and changed when a job or a child's needs change.
Child and spousal supportProtective orders
Help asking the court for an order of protection, or answering one served on you, quickly and with your safety first.

From clients
What it was like to have a team
“Bettina had my financial disclosure half done before I'd found all the bank statements. Adaeze made the settlement meeting feel like a conversation.”
Renee D.Divorce
“Our parenting plan stopped working when I took a job in Tucson. Owen walked me through every option, and we had a new schedule before school started.”
Luis A.Changing a parenting plan
“I called the first week with the same question three times. Theo answered it three times, kindly, and Britt called me back that afternoon.”
Kim P.Child support
Every family's case is different. What happened for these clients doesn't promise the same result in yours.
Make the first call. We'll take it from there.
Theo will ask a few questions, find a time with one of our lawyers and tell you what to bring. A first meeting is 45 minutes, at our office or by video.
Please don't send confidential details through the website. We'll go over them when we talk.
