An Accessible Lawyer With An Informational Approach
Our firm is devoted to providing a “hands-on” informational approach. Our entire firm is sensitive to your situation and will make sure you understand what is about to happen as well as your available legal options. From negotiations to litigation, our attorneys will fight to protect your rights.
Common disputes in divorce cases include:
- Spousal support (commonly referred to as alimony) — The ability of one party to pay and the other party’s need based on the standard of living during the marriage are initial considerations
- Custody and visitation schedules, along with the amount of child support
- Division of property and debts — Louisiana follows a community property model when it comes to asset division
- Domestic violence that requires protective orders
- Adultery divorce
Our lawyers are accessible — clients receive their cellphone numbers and personal email addresses. If you have a question or an emergency, you can trust that you will be able to reach them.
