Our trial lawyers have obtained extraordinary settlements in catastrophic injury and other civil justice claims.

A contempt charge is a very serious matter and should not be taken lightly by either side, as the accuser has a high burden of proof and the accused faces potential jail time.

A large part of considering whether or not to assert the Fifth Amendment privilege against self-incrimination is about risk-assessment.

Claiming a child for tax purposes is a child support issue. In both joint custody and sole custody cases, even where the child support obligor has limited visitation, courts typically allocate the dependency exemption on an alternating basis so that at least every other year, the person ordered to pay child support receives at least part of the tax benefit for the child they are supporting.

The law requires us to bill by the hour except for our work on injury cases. Our fee arrangement is called an "Evergreen" retainer, meaning that our clients maintain a pre-established amount in trust with us throughout our representation.

An Evergreen retainer requires the client to replenish the account whenever the balance falls below a predetermined minimum. This ensures that there are always sufficient funds to cover legal fees. As the lawyer provides legal services, they bill against the retainer. The fees are deducted from the trust account, and the client is notified of any remaining balance.

Evergreen retainers are more flexible than traditional retainers and provide both the lawyer and the client with a more predictable and efficient way to handle legal fees.

Child support calculators are designed to work for incomes ranging from upper-middle class to below the federal poverty level. The formulas cease to work when incomes exceed a certain amount per month.

The most important reason to file first is that the person who files first almost always gets to speak first in court. 

There are two major reasons that the damage from an unfair one-sided communication can’t be corrected simply by giving the other side a chance to speak and be heard later.

The most frustrating part of litigation, especially family law, is also the most difficult thing for attorneys to deal with and explain: how one party can behave unfairly and “get away with it,” even temporarily.

To request emergency custody of a child, the person seeking the emergency must be able to show that an emergency order is necessary because the child is in harm's way and will likely be irreparably harmed if the emergency is not granted.

All legal disputes are ultimately about facts. For any fact that is important to a case, there is more value establishing that fact through the opposing party than proving that same exact fact through you, the client.

In contested, high conflict cases involving children, sometimes professionals are designated to work with the parents and children. Child custody experts may be appointed at the request of a parent, or the judge can appoint one or more experts even if the parents do not request an expert. Child custody professionals are supposed to be neutral, meaning they work for the interests of the children or the court, and not for either parent.

Evidence for each case should be organized and prepared for disclosure to the other side.
