Family Law Overview

Central Ohio Family Law Attorney

As a family law attorney, I meet clients after they have considered or made a decision to proceed with terminating their marriage, filing a petition for modification of custody or adoption of a child. These are complex issues, and the outcomes of each critically impact one's emotional and financial well-being. When I meet with a new client, I take the time to discuss both the legal and personal aspects of the case, thoroughly considering all factors before making any recommendations on how best to proceed. Below are links to more information about my primary practice areas. If you would like to speak with me, please contact my Columbus office to arrange a free telephone consultation. I serve clients in courts throughout Central Ohio.

• Divorce, dissolution of marriage, annulment, legal separation, military divorce
• Complex and large-asset divorce
• Child custody and visitation
• Child and spousal support (alimony)
• Protecting investments during divorce
• Protecting retirement assets during divorce
• Prenuptial agreements, post-nuptial agreements
• Protecting business ownerships during divorce
• Post-decree modification of custody, visitation, child support and spousal support
• Guardianships and grandparent rights
