Ms. Cusic was a pleasure to speak to from the onset when I was going through the initial vetting process for a divorce attorney. Though my attorney was Ms. Horton, who is part of Ms. Cusic's firm, it was Ms. Cusic's demeanor and open and honest initial consult that left me with the choice to ultimately decide to choose her firm over the dozen or so others I vetted. And I'm glad I did. From the initial evaluation of the case to the continuing communication throughout the whole process I was truly impressed. Not only was the process easy for me but also for my ex-spouse as this was an amicable divorce. I would highly recommend both Ms. Horton and Ms. Cusic for your divorce matters. They were not only truly professional in every aspect of handling my case but also very responsive in any communication which I valued very much. I know they had other clientele they were handling throughout my case but they made me feel like the only client and that level of time and commitment to delivering a positive outcome was priceless to me.

I contacted Dessiray for legal advise regarding a child support modification. I asked questions using different scenarios and she was helpful with answering them all. She explained everything in a way that I understood and didn't rush through her responses. I felt a lot better after speaking with Dessiray because I got clear advice on which path to take that's best for me. Ms. Cusic was very instrumental and easy to talk to.

Anna is about the busy She stays focus as a he issue(s)at hand. She is not easily distracted Anna is a TRUE expertise in the area of family law. What I love most about Anna, is that she is fair; even when there's a lot of bad "blood", she still wants to be fair. Without a doubt Anna is going to fight tooth and nail for the child. I completely appreciate everything Anna did, and how resilient and nonchalant she was about the foolery.

I hired Mr.Scott last minute during my trial because my state appointed attorney had no trial experience. Mr.Scott not only took my case but got me a great deal with the prosecutor, that my court appointed attorney couldn't get. He was always responsive to my calls & text messages. I rarely had to wait more than 48hrs to get a reply. If he didn't know, he found out. He's professional and has the capability of seeing your situation on a personal level. He's truly a great attorney.

My experience with Brian Latimer and his staff has been nothing short of exceptional. From the second I reached out to them for help, I knew I had found the firm to help me navigate a truly stressful and emotional child support case. He and his assistant made the whole process as easy as it could be and took the stress off me. They not only were dedicated to achieving the best possible outcome, but they listened and handled my fears, many questions and high emotions like I was speaking to a dear friend.  Mr. Latimer's knowledge, dedication, and overall kindness when handling myself and my case exceeded my expectations. If you are looking for an amazing lawyer both in court and through the whole process look no further. You have found the absolute very best in Brian Latimer and his staff. I am forever grateful for everything they have done for me and the kindness in the process.

It has been a great pleasure working with David. David is excellent at his profession and truly a gentleman. Right from when we started communicating, he spoke with me multiple times to guide me through the case without pressuring me to sign with him. My case was quite complex and he took the time to educate me on various possibilities and proper ways to go about it. David promised nothing but delivered way more. Amazingly, he was able to get everything I asked for. His fee is very reasonable, and David was always available to answer questions or doubts. I could not be more satisfied. I wholeheartedly recommend David to anyone looking for divorce-related cases.

It is very remiss of me that I've not written this sooner; however, I am compelled to write this favorable review. As first time homebuyers, we hired Joan Adams to assist with the navigation of of the process with legal implications. From her evaluation of the purchase contract, a drafted Use and Occupancy Agreement, revised addendums, interaction with the Title Company (re: survey and title insurance), finding open items with the Township for permitted work, clarifying ownership of solar system and its SRECs, and representing us at the Real Estate Settlement/Closing...this firm was brilliant. A local attorney with local relationships cannot be undervalued and Adams & Collins Law epitomizes that value.

Farah Ahmed is a very capable and efficient lawyer. I chose Ms. Ahmed to handle my divorce because her firm was highly recommended by a friend of mine. During my first consultation she asked a lot of questions about my situation. She mentioned a few problem areas that she would have to look into, but, at the end, she gave me a good overview of how the case would proceed and how it would end up. Her overview ended up being quite accurate. Ms. Ahmed is very thorough and organized. She stayed on top of the case throughout, making sure that the necessary documents were supplied by both sides. She does not mess around and gets straight to the point. You shouldn’t expect a lot of chit-chat from her. Nevertheless, she is very pleasant and easy to get along with. She was able to foresee multiple pitfalls and roadblocks and was able to get around them. Ultimately, she got me to a good resolution. I don’t think that I could have hoped for better.

Because it involved the care and financial well being of my 88 year old Mother, it was crucial that everything went perfectly. And it did. Mr. Scharf seemed to handle things as if it were his OWN Mother. I can't say enough good things about how we were treated.

She was much more informative about the court system then my last lawyer concerning child support. She didn't just show up to conference she communicated with me through the entire process prior to. She answered questions and concerns of mine whenever I had them I genuinely felt heard. She made sure she reached everyone involved at Family Court to do what was best for my case.

When I first began my search for a family lawyer, I knew I needed someone who was both serious and thorough—someone who understood the law deeply and could fight for what was right. My case was somewhat unconventional: I, as a paternal aunt, was seeking custody of my 7-year-old niece after the tragic passing of both my brother and sister. Given that this was my first time navigating the courtroom, I was understandably nervous. Lisa Harding came highly recommended, and after researching her firm and reading glowing reviews, I felt she was the right choice. That feeling was confirmed during our first meeting. Lisa’s extensive knowledge of family law and her dedication to my case immediately put me at ease. She worked diligently, keeping me informed and guiding me through every step of the process. Her expertise was evident, and her ability to calm my nerves before each court date was invaluable. Lisa’s approach was not only professional but also deeply personal. She took the time to understand my family’s situation, and even my mother felt such a connection with her that she jokingly wished she could adopt Lisa as her own daughter! Lisa’s compassion and commitment were evident throughout the case, and her support was instrumental in achieving a successful outcome. I am thrilled to share that I won custody of my niece. This outcome means the world to me, and I am incredibly grateful for Lisa's hard work and unwavering support. I can now move forward with raising my niece, knowing that both my brother and sister would be proud and relieved by this result. If you are looking for a lawyer who will fight passionately for you and offer both legal expertise and heartfelt support, I highly recommend Lisa Harding. She has truly been a blessing in this challenging time.

I had the privilege of working with attorney David Yoon-Lee during one of the most challenging times of my life. Initially, my only options seemed to be a 10-year sentence or going to trial with the risk of facing 25 years to life. Despite these tough circumstances, I expressed my hope for probation, even though it was a difficult ask given the nature of my case. David not only listened, but he exceeded my expectations. He worked diligently and compassionately, securing me a fair probation deal of four years, something I never thought possible. His commitment to my case was unwavering, even though he accepted very little up front. He genuinely cared about my family and understood that this case was deeply connected to my children. David Yoon-Lee made a tremendous impact on my life, and for that, I will forever be grateful. I am still working to fully compensate him for his incredible work, and I stand by my word to ensure he is paid for the excellent representation he provided. Thank you, David, for your compassion, dedication, and for making my life easier. You truly are amazing.

What a Family Law Lawyer Can Do for You

A family law lawyer provides legal services related to family relationships, including marriage, divorce, child custody, and adoption. Family lawyers help clients navigate emotionally charged legal issues, providing guidance and representation in disputes that affect spouses, children, and parents. Whether you're going through a divorce, seeking custody of your children, or drafting a prenuptial agreement, a family law lawyer ensures your rights are protected and your interests are represented.

Family law attorneys often handle sensitive matters and offer objective legal advice, helping clients reach fair outcomes either through negotiation, mediation, or litigation.

When Should I Hire a Family Law Lawyer?

Hiring a family law lawyer is beneficial in several situations, especially when legal matters involve close personal relationships. Common reasons to hire a family law lawyer include:

  • Divorce or separation: When ending a marriage, a lawyer can help you navigate issues such as division of assets, spousal support, and child custody arrangements.
  • Child custody and visitation disputes: If you and your co-parent can't agree on custody or visitation, a lawyer can represent your interests and work toward a solution that benefits your children.
  • Child support: Whether you’re seeking child support or defending against a claim, a lawyer can help ensure the appropriate amount is calculated and enforced.
  • Prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: A lawyer can help draft or review agreements that protect your assets in case of divorce.
  • Adoption: Family law lawyers guide you through the legal process of adoption, ensuring that all requirements are met.
  • Domestic violence or restraining orders: If you're a victim of domestic violence or being falsely accused, a lawyer can help you obtain or challenge protective orders.
  • Paternity cases: If there are questions about the paternity of a child, a lawyer can help establish or dispute legal fatherhood.

Hiring a lawyer early can prevent issues from escalating, and they can offer you the best chance of achieving a favorable outcome in emotionally charged situations.

What Does a Family Law Lawyer Do?

A family law lawyer provides a wide range of services depending on your specific legal needs. Their responsibilities may include:

  • Advising on legal rights and options: Helping you understand your legal rights regarding divorce, child custody, support, and other family law issues.
  • Filing legal documents: Drafting and filing petitions, motions, and agreements with the court, such as divorce papers, custody agreements, or support orders.
  • Representing clients in court: Arguing your case in front of a judge if a settlement can’t be reached through negotiation or mediation.
  • Mediation and negotiation: Assisting with alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, to reach agreements on issues like custody, property division, and support without going to trial.
  • Enforcing court orders: Helping you enforce court orders related to child support, alimony, or custody if the other party fails to comply.
  • Drafting prenuptial or postnuptial agreements: Creating agreements that protect your assets in the event of a divorce.
  • Handling adoption proceedings: Ensuring that the legal process of adoption is followed, from filing paperwork to finalizing the adoption in court.

How Are Family Law Lawyers Paid?

Family law lawyers typically charge clients in one of several ways, depending on the complexity of the case and the lawyer’s experience. Common payment arrangements include:

  • Hourly rates: Most family lawyers charge by the hour, with rates varying based on experience and location. Clients are billed for the time spent working on their case, including consultations, court appearances, and document preparation.
  • Flat fees: For more straightforward legal services, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, some lawyers offer flat-fee arrangements.
  • Retainer fees: In cases that are expected to require significant time and attention, such as contentious custody battles, a lawyer may charge a retainer, which is an upfront payment that covers the initial costs of legal services. The lawyer then bills against the retainer as they work on your case.

The exact cost will depend on the complexity of your case and the lawyer’s fee structure, which should be discussed upfront.

How Much Does a Family Law Lawyer Cost?

The cost of hiring a family law lawyer varies based on factors such as the lawyer's experience, the location, and the complexity of your case. Here are some general cost guidelines:

  • Hourly rates: Family law lawyers typically charge between $150 and $500 per hour, depending on their experience and the complexity of the case.
  • Flat fees: For simpler cases, such as drafting a prenuptial agreement or handling an uncontested divorce, fees may range from $1,000 to $5,000.
  • Retainers: For more complex matters, such as contested divorces or custody battles, lawyers may charge a retainer ranging from $2,500 to $10,000 or more. The lawyer will bill against the retainer for the work they do on your case.
  • Additional costs: You may also be responsible for additional costs, such as filing fees, mediation fees, or expert witness fees.

Always ask for a clear breakdown of the lawyer’s fees and any additional expenses during your consultation.

Top Questions to Ask a Family Law Lawyer

Before hiring a family law lawyer, it's important to ask questions to ensure they're the right fit for your case. Here are key questions to ask during your consultation:

  1. What experience do you have with family law cases like mine?
    Make sure the lawyer has experience handling cases similar to yours, whether it's a contested divorce, child custody dispute, or adoption.
  2. How will you charge for your services?
    Clarify whether the lawyer charges by the hour, a flat fee, or requires a retainer. Ask for an estimate of the total costs involved.
  3. What are the possible outcomes of my case?
    An experienced lawyer should be able to give you a general idea of what to expect based on the facts of your case.
  4. What is your approach to resolving disputes?
    Ask whether the lawyer tends to favor negotiation and mediation or whether they prefer to take cases to court. This can help you determine if their style matches your goals.
  5. How long do you expect my case to take?
    While it’s difficult to predict, the lawyer should give you an estimate based on similar cases.
  6. Who will be handling my case?
    In larger firms, junior attorneys or paralegals may do much of the work, so make sure you understand who will be your main point of contact.

How to Check the Credibility of a Family Law Lawyer

To ensure you're hiring a reputable family law lawyer, follow these steps to verify their credentials and reputation:

  • Check state bar association records: Verify that the lawyer is licensed to practice in your state and is in good standing with no disciplinary actions.
  • Read client reviews and testimonials: Look for reviews on websites like Avvo, Google, or Martindale-Hubbell. Previous clients can give you insight into the lawyer’s professionalism and success in family law cases.
  • Request references: Ask the lawyer for references from past clients who can speak to their experience with the lawyer.
  • Review their website or professional profile: Look at the lawyer’s background, case history, and areas of focus to ensure they have substantial experience in family law.
  • Look for professional memberships: Membership in reputable organizations, such as the American Academy of Matrimonial Lawyers (AAML), can indicate a lawyer's expertise and dedication to family law.

What Should I Prepare for My First Consultation?

To get the most out of your first consultation with a family law lawyer, it’s important to come prepared. Here’s what you should bring:

  • Relevant documents: Bring any documents related to your case, such as marriage certificates, prenuptial agreements, financial records, custody agreements, or court orders.
  • List of assets and debts: For divorce cases, prepare a detailed list of all assets (e.g., homes, bank accounts, retirement funds) and debts (e.g., mortgages, loans, credit card balances).
  • Details of the family issue: Provide a written summary of the situation, including key dates and facts related to your divorce, custody dispute, or support issue.
  • Questions for the lawyer: Write down any questions you have about the legal process, costs, and potential outcomes.
  • Your goals: Be prepared to discuss your objectives, such as custody arrangements, property division, or spousal support, so the lawyer understands your priorities.

Being organized and clear about your situation will help the lawyer evaluate your case more effectively and offer the best advice for moving forward.
