CHINS/TPR
CHINS stands for “Child in Need of Services.” These cases usually involve several hearings. The goal is always to protect the best interests and welfare of the child in question.
Divorce/Separation
Divorce is one of the most difficult transitions you can face in your life. However, having a fair divorce settlement will ensure that this process is as smooth as possible. I have represented many clients in Indiana divorces, and I can help you protect your interests as you end your marriage.
Custody
Child custody cases can be intense regardless of the circumstances. As your attorney in these cases, my goal is to fight for your desired outcome and protect your relationship with your child.
Paternity
Paternity cases in the state of Indiana arise most often when a child is born out of wedlock. As an experienced family law attorney, I can help you initiate or respond to paternity proceedings, whether you are the father or the mother.
Adoption
If you plan to add a child to your family through adoption, you will need assistance from a qualified attorney. I can help with domestic adoption, stepparent adoption, and other types of adoption in Indiana.
Guardianships
Guardianship petitions may be recommended when an incapacitated adult or a child is in need of care. If you are interested in pursuing guardianship of a loved one in Indiana, I can help you explore this option and complete the process successfully.
Guardian ad Litem
When a family law or DCS case involves a child, the court will sometimes appoint a Guardian ad Litem to speak on the child’s behalf. I am a trained Guardian ad Litem capable of serving the court in these cases.
Mediation
Mediation offers a more peaceful resolution process to families that want to avoid time in court. I am a certified family law mediator, and I can help you resolve any family law matter using this low-stress alternative to litigation.
A B O U T
Dealing with the Indiana legal system can feel overwhelming. Whether you are in the middle of divorce or facing criminal charges, having the right attorney on your side can make all the difference. I have been representing clients in Indiana for many years, and I am here to help you achieve the best outcome in your case.
In order to provide you with the best quality of representation, I focus my practice on a few key areas of the law. My practice areas include: Family law mediation, Guardian ad Litem, CHINS, Divorce, Custody, Adoption, Guardianship, Child Support, and Paternity.
As a seasoned and dedicated attorney, I have learned the importance of putting my clients first in every situation.
