Child support

Child support payments are one of the many issues that must be settled in any divorce situation with children involved. Most times this is not a straightforward process and trying to figure out the amount and frequency of payments is not always an easy task. Having an attorney to advise you can be helpful in this regard. Our firm has handled many different types of child support cases, so we have experience in this area. We’ll be glad to work with you to get an amount dialed in—and get it in writing for your peace of mind. Many different factors need to be considered, and we can talk with you about the best approach in your unique situation.

Child custody and parenting time

As a child custody attorney, we see many situations where a couple is trying to figure out custody as they separate or divorce. Developing a solid parenting plan and custody agreement helps create stability for the child or children and ease the adjustment to the new living situation. We work with our clients to determine the answers to questions such as who will make decisions on the child’s behalf, what parent will have custody or if it will be shared, and other important issues.

Our firm knows that each custody agreement should be tailored to the specific set of circumstances that the family is facing and that the well-being of the children involved is the primary concern. We’ll spend the time needed to get to know your situation and make our recommendations for moving forward based on our time with you. Our attorneys believe in personalized service since we know no two circumstances are exactly alike.

Paternity

Will Fraley Attorney at Law can handle paternity suits for clients whenever necessary. Establishing paternity is often of legal importance in either a child custody or a child support situation. If there is a question as to the identity of the father, the court will require proof before pursuing either type of agreement. Our firm has represented fathers who are trying to prove a child is theirs, as well as mothers who are attempting to establish paternity. We recommend DNA testing as the gold standard for this type of situation, and we can guide you through the entire process.

Adoption

If you are involved in an adoption situation, an attorney can make sure everything goes along smoothly. We will take care of all the paperwork involved, make sure everything is filed and signed, and help ease your mind along the way. We understand that this process, while exciting, can also be a bit challenging, and we’re here to help you get it all done.
