Services
Divorce
We handle all aspects of divorce proceedings in Washington state, including asset division, spousal maintenance, and parenting plans. Our team prepares clients for temporary orders hearings and manages discovery processes to ensure fair outcomes. With expertise in both contested and uncontested divorces, we offer fixed-fee options for straightforward cases while maintaining courtroom readiness for complex matters.
Child Custody
Our firm develops and modifies parenting plans that prioritize children's best interests while addressing clients' unique circumstances. We prepare clients for court interactions with collateral investigators and facilitate communication between parents. With experience in non-parental custody cases, we help relatives and guardians navigate legal requirements to establish stable care arrangements for children.
Mediation
We provide mediation services as a cost-effective alternative to trial for family law matters. Our experienced attorney facilitates negotiations between parties to reach mutually acceptable agreements. The process includes drafting binding settlement agreements while maintaining neutrality throughout the proceedings. This approach often resolves cases more quickly than traditional litigation.
Child Support
Our team handles child support determinations considering complex factors like self-employment, military service, and special needs. We assist with establishing initial orders, modifying existing arrangements, and enforcing payments through legal mechanisms. The firm helps clients navigate Washington's child support guidelines while addressing unique family circumstances.
Arbitration
We offer arbitration services as a quicker alternative to trial for resolving family disputes. Our process maintains formal legal standards while providing more scheduling flexibility than court proceedings. The binding decisions reached through arbitration address all necessary legal requirements while minimizing emotional stress for involved parties.
