We can help with changes in either the custody or visitation rights involved with your children. Our firm can also help modify the terms of custody and visitation that were agreed upon by both parties involved or ordered by the Court.

Prenuptial Agreements
Our firm handles prenuptial agreements. Prenuptial agreements involve people who are not yet married and wish to resolve all financial issues that may arise in the unlikely event of a future divorce.
