Our Family Law Services

Our attorneys at Roberts Means Roncevic Kapela LLC have experience handling a broad range of family law matters, from the simple to the most contentious and complex. We employ all available means for resolving your case effectively and efficiently, including negotiation, alternative dispute resolution methods, such as mediation, and skilled litigation in family court. 

These issues and services include:

    • Cross petition divorce: A legal process where both parties file a divorce petition, generally outlining their individual terms.
    • High asset divorce: A divorce involving substantial financial assets that may require complicated strategies for division and protection.
    • Military divorce: A divorce where one or both parties are military members, involving unique legal complexities.
  • Child custody: Court orders outlining how access to children will be shared and parental rights and responsibilities in raising children. 
    • Modifications of child custody: The legal process of adjusting an existing child custody order due to significant changes in circumstances.
  • Child support: Financial payments made by the noncustodial parent to the custodial parent for the cost of raising the child.
    • Modifications of child support: Changes made to an existing child support order, typically due to changes in financial circumstances or needs of the child.
  • Alimony: A regular payment one spouse makes to the other for a specified or indefinite period after a divorce, also known as spousal support or maintenance.
  • Legal separation: The legal process of ending a marital living arrangement while remaining legally married.
  • Paternity: The legal recognition of a man as the father of a child, after which child custody or visitation and child support can be sought by parents.
  • Contempt of court: An action that violates or obstructs the family court’s authority can lead to specific penalties. 
  • Prenuptial/Postnuptial agreements: Legal contracts entered into before (prenuptial) or after (postnuptial) marriage outlining the division of assets should the marriage end.
  • Relocation law: Laws that pertain to the rights of parents to relocate with their child, particularly following a divorce or separation.
  • Grandparent visitation rights: Legal rights that grandparents may seek through the courts to be able to visit their grandchildren.
  • Guardianship and third-party custody: Legal responsibility for a child by others, not the child’s biological parents. 
  • Contested and uncontested adoption: Cases in which adoption is sought whether challenged by others or not. 
  • Mediation and collaboration: Processes used to resolve family law disputes where a neutral third party (the mediator) or the collaborative law process assists the parties in negotiating a settlement.
  • Arbitration: A dispute resolution method where an independent third party makes a binding decision on those involved.
  • Protective/Restraining orders: Legal orders issued by a court to protect a person from being harmed or harassed by another person. These are commonly used in domestic violence matters.
