Family Law & Divorce

At every stage of a family's journey down life's path, the services of a good lawyer can provide security and peace of mind in the midst of the changes we experience.  When first starting out, a pre-nuptial agreement can be of great benefit.  While no one gets married with the intention of getting a divorce, working out the finances and other decisions that will arise at the end of the marriage in the beginning, when the couple is in love and willing to work together, can have a profound effect on the parties when the relationship is over and each party just wants to be done with the other.  A little advanced planning can allow the parties to split "amicably", which can be extremely valuable; especially when there are young children of the marriage.

 

While we at The Flannery Law Office would recommend that any couple getting married consider a prenuptial agreement, the fact is, most couples do not have a prenuptial agreement when they get married.  This results in a divorce action where the outcome is not certain.  Whether the divorce is amicable or contentious, issues concerning property division, maintenance (alimony), child support, and physical placement (visitation) must be resolved between the parties.  In that case, you need a zealous advocate to make sure that you receive a fair division for yourself and for your family.  The Flannery Law Office has the experience to help you achieve your goals.  Whether your goal is staying in the family residence until the kids finish school or hanging on to a particular piece of personal property with sentimental value, allow us to help you through a difficult time.

 

Beyond divorce, or planning for marriage, there a number of related family law issues for which The Flannery Law Office can provide assistance, including child custody and paternity, and juvenile justice.  Let us assist your family by providing the kind of service and empathy our clients have relied on in the past.
