Child Abduction
Contrary to common belief, child abduction is a frequent occurrence that occurs within the family. Sometimes, a parent who does not have custody of their children may believe that keeping the children for him or herself will be in the children's best interests. Unfortunately, this will be done so unlawfully and by breaking court orders. C
Domestic Violence
Are you victimized by domestic violence in your home? There is legal action you can take to stop this from taking place and to possibly hold your attacker accountable for their actions. Our law firm can help you pursue options such as obtaining an order of protection or seeking relocation.
Grandparental Rights
During the divorce process and after it has been completed, grandparents have the right to visit their grandchildren, even if custody is not awarded to the grandparents' child. In some rare cases, the best interests of the child may even be to allow the grandparents to seek custody of the children.
Orders of Protection
When a family has become victimized or threatened by domestic violence, they may seek protection in the form of a protective order. These legally binding orders are designed to prevent an alleged attacker from harming a victim, especially one that lives within the same household.
Parental Alienation
Have you been the victim of parental alienation? This is a process that takes place when a child attempts to cut out one parent from their life entirely for any reason. It is an unfortunate event that happens quite frequently in many Long Island families after divorce.
Pre/post Nuptial Agreements
Signing a pre or postnuptial agreement is very important to a marriage, and to a divorce case. Even if you are entirely sure that your marriage will not end in divorce, it is very important to sign these documents to protect yourself and your assets.
