Family Law: 家庭问题
Family law is much more than just divorces. It means pre-marriage (pre-nuptial/pre-nup) agreements, marriage validity challenges, separation and marital settlement agreements, spousal and ex-spousal support (alimony), equitable distribution of assets, juvenile adjudication, child custody, adoption and foster care relationships, paternity tests, guardianships and other beneficial relationships, and much, much more.
And like any legal issue, if not dealt with right away, a problem can often pass the point of no return. Take paternity fraud, for example. Did you know that in Pennsylvania, you can be legally bound as the father of your wife's child even if you have 100% proof positive that the child is not yours?
With so many diverse possibilities lurking in every family-oriented case, it is imperative to hire an attorney who is knowledgeable and experienced in a variety of family law situations. So many clients tell me they want only "a simple divorce", but do not stop to ask even the most basic questions, such as whether their child is in fact theirs (if a male client), if the husband has been cheating (if a female client), if there are hidden assets, or if there are ramifications in other areas such as in civil litigation, tax, or immigration law.
You need an attorney who has the experience and ability to see the big picture. Other attorneys "specialize" in family law but in fact only file uncontested divorces or hash out custody issues for the majority of their practice. They advertise personal service for a $149 flat fee, but you must know that you will get what you pay for, and it can mean 90% work by a form-filling secretary and a quick glance by the attorney. You must know that you will often have issues which are much more complicated and deserve a careful review and consultation. You also need someone who will remain professional and personally interested in your case from beginning to end and at all times. Therefore, contact me right now for a free consultation and see how I can provide clarity and results to your family law problem.
