Providing personalized legal counsel in the areas of divorce, divorce defense, child custody, spousal and child support and equitable distribution is a main focus of our firm. All of these matters are not only legally complex but will have a lasting impact on a person from a financial and emotional standpoint. We believe that a Port Washington divorce attorney should provide one-on-one attention in these cases in order to ensure that the right approach is taken and a client's unique needs are properly addressed.

Every divorce is different. For some, a delicate approach is best in order to maintain an amicable relationship between spouses. For others, the only option is aggressive legal counsel in contested divorce proceedings that may involve particularly complex matters related to drug abuse, domestic violence or other behavior that endangers our client and his or her children. When you work with a lawyer at our firm for your Port Washington family law case, you will find that we treat our clients as individuals. We will thoroughly review your case from all angles to determine what approach will be best for you.
