"With proper guidance, most families can resolve their differences privately, without court intervention. This approach is empowering to families and significantly reduces the financial and emotional cost of family disputes. Court should be the last resort, as the adversarial legal system can severely damage ongoing family relationships." — Attorney Lisa C. Matthews

We handle cases involving all aspects of family law, including: prenuptial agreements, divorces, mediation and collaborative divorce, custody disputes, marital property disputes, restraining orders, protective orders, injunctions, proceedings to recover spousal support and/or child support, domestic and international adoptions, emancipation, interdiction and paternity suits.

Attorney Lisa C. Matthews is a board certified family law specialist, a family and juvenile mediator, and a collaborative divorce attorney. Her local, state, national and international involvement in training and professional organizations contributes greatly to the high quality of services provided by our firm in this area of practice. Our lawyers approach these delicate matters with sensitivity and respect.
