Divorce Mediation & Arbitration

Prenuptial/Postnuptial Agreements
Prenuptial and postnuptial agreements are very personal decisions for every couple that require careful consideration and strong communication. And while it is difficult to consider the possibility of a marriage ending before it has begun, a prenuptial agreement can ultimately help to provide peace of mind and strengthen your relationship.
Spouses and children are not the only individuals affected by divorce proceedings. Many grandparents and siblings also face unique questions and challenges throughout the process. Our attorneys are here to help secure opportunities for visitation rights.
