Experienced South Florida Family Lawyers Pursue Favorable Results

Innovative Boca Raton attorneys advise on marital and parenting cases

Family matters are private situations, so when divorces or other domestic concerns enter the legal system, it places great stress on all parties involved. At times like these, it is crucial to find an attorney who not only can advocate for your rights, but also can ease the burden on you at every stage of the process. At Shapiro, Blasi, Wasserman & Hermann in Boca Raton, we are Florida lawyers with 50 years of combined experience and a tradition of helping our clients achieve positive results in family law proceedings. Whether your situation is fairly amicable or highly volatile, we make sure you understand your options and the legal standards pertaining to issues such as child custody, alimony and property division. From there, we’ll work with you on developing a strategy that respects your values and maximizes the likelihood of a favorable outcome.

Palm Beach County divorce firm provides comprehensive legal support

To relieve the burden on you during your decision-making process, our firm provides a free initial consultation. Our personal approach to legal representation means that you’ll have a full understanding of the key matters to be resolved during your divorce, including:

• Alimony — We represent potential paying and recipient spouses in cases where alimony is at issue. In many instances, fair arrangements can be worked out between the parties. If consensus can’t be reached, we’ll review the length of the marriage, each spouse’s earning ability and other factors that judges use to decide spousal support issues.
• Child custody and support — If divorcing spouses share minor children, it is extremely important to create a parenting plan that establishes child custody and visitation terms that are truly in the children’s best interests. These determinations can involve many different factors associated with children’s physical, emotional, social and educational needs. Our lawyers develop a full perspective on the situation and advocate for appropriate terms that give each parent the ability to maintain a strong presence in their child’s life whenever possible. We also advise parents on child support matters, including disputes and modification requests.
• Property division — Under Florida’s equitable distribution law, courts are mandated to allocate marital assets and debts based on what is fair. Of course, this can be a complicated determination. Whether you seek to handle these issues in negotiations, mediation or court, our advocates will make the strongest possible case for a fair division.

Facing a divorce or another difficult domestic matter can seem intimidating, but we focus on your well-being at every stage of your case. No matter what forum you choose, we’ll work tirelessly so that you can move into the future with confidence.
