The focus of family law is providing legal advice regarding separation and divorce. An uncontested divorce is the ideal scenario, but it is often the exception. Whether the divorce is uncontested or contested, legal counsel is advisable in both cases to address issues such as spousal support and the division of assets (savings, investment accounts, life insurance policies, home equity savings plans, and jointly owned real estate). If the matter becomes contentious, legal representation is essential.

Attorney Thomas Salmen, who is also a specialist in family law, advises and represents our clients in divorce proceedings, as well as on issues related to pension rights equalization, equalization of accrued gains, and spousal and post-marital support. In addition to assisting with parental disputes, family law counseling also covers arrangements regarding visitation and custody rights, as well as child support claims. The issue of parental support is also a key focus of our practice.
