Family Law encompasses all legal rights and matters involving disputes between family members, including relationships by blood, marriage, adoption, or domestic partnership. In Pennsylvania, family issues can arise from custody over children, visitation rights, child and spousal support, paternity, adoption, and marriage and divorce.

If you are facing the difficult questions involved in leaving your spouse, you may feel very challenged and overwhelmed. You may be wondering:

Will I be able to stay in my home?
What will happen to my children?
How will our debts be settled?
Will I receive a fair share of our assets?
Will we be able to work through a divorce amicably?
