Helping You Move Forward With Your Life
Going through a separation or divorce can be one of the most emotionally difficult and confusing family law matters, but that does not mean the process has to be confusing. Often, when clients come to The Law Office of Joan H.

Healthy Relationships
Even if you no longer get along with your spouse, it can be important to maintain a healthy relationship during and after the divorce process — especially when children are involved. With this in mind, our lawyers often give clients important areas to focus on outside of the office, including plans to conserve assets, address children’s immediate needs and take other necessary steps. Referrals to mental health providers and financial advisers can be provided. We are focused on resolving issues, solving problems and helping you and your family to move forward.
Productive Resolutions And Support
Effective planning can make a huge difference when it comes to a positive and productive resolution to your divorce. As effective negotiators, our firm is committed to working out as many aspects of your divorce as possible to minimize or eliminate the expenses and limitations of going to court.
Part of effective planning and resolution is forming and managing expectations. We will help you plan for your future, as appropriate to the situation, and refer you to financial advisers or other professionals as needed.
