What are some examples of family law disputes?

Family law disputes can encompass a range of issues, including divorce, child support and custody, adoption, domestic violence and guardianship. Divorce cases typically involve division of assets such as real estate, investments and bank accounts; alimony payments; child custody arrangements; visitation rights; and any other matters arising from the dissolution of the marriage.

Child support and custody disputes involve determining the financial and parental responsibility of each parent, as well as deciding where the child will reside. Domestic violence cases include obtaining restraining orders to protect victims from abuse or harassment. Guardianship is a legal arrangement in which an adult is appointed to care for a minor or incapacitated adult. Each case is unique, so it is important to consult with an experienced family lawyer who can help you navigate your specific situation.
