There may be occasions after you have retained the services of an attorney when you would just feel more comfortable if you got a second opinion before making decisions that could be life changing. Perhaps it seems to you that your case is just dragging along with no apparent progress having been made. Sometimes you may feel that you are not receiving the kind of attention you deserve. Perhaps you want your case to be evaluated and assessed through the eyes of an attorney with significantly more family law experience. Also, you may have a number of unanswered questions about…

Whether you should sign a martial settlement agreement

Whether you are ready for mediation

What positions you should take during mediation

Whether your case is being handled in a thorough and customary manner

What the law provides as to

The Division Of Your Assets And Liabilities
Alimony
Child Support
Timesharing Arrangements With The Children
Domestic Violence
Substance Abuse Prevention
Alienation of Affection
Child Abuse
