Dependency and neglect proceedings involve serious allegations that can significantly impact both parents and children. These cases often require immediate legal action and experienced representation.

Rule 31 Mediation
Not every family law dispute needs to be resolved in the courtroom.

Mediation can often reduce conflict, save time and legal expenses, and provide families with greater control over the outcome of their case.
Our attorneys guide clients through the mediation process by helping them prepare, negotiate effectively, and work toward practical agreements involving divorce, child custody, parenting plans, child support, and other family law matters.
