Divorce Attorneys in New Orleans, Louisiana
Local, Interstate, and International Divorce Representation
The law firm of Stephenson, Chávarri & Dawson provides experienced, results-driven divorce representation across the New Orleans area.
Our attorneys have a long history of serving Louisiana families. We manage complex divorce issues, including property division, prenuptial agreements, child support, and alimony.
Beyond family law, our work in business and estate planning helps us protect your broader interests. We can update wills, revise succession plans, and divide closely held business assets fairly.
Additionally, our multilingual staff speaks French and Spanish. This international scope makes us an ideal choice for cross-border disputes and clients with immigration concerns.
Our Approach to Divorce Cases
Our firm takes a pragmatic approach to divorce and legal separation. We know that trial litigation can become slow and expensive.
When possible, we resolve property disputes and family disagreements through mediation, arbitration, or collaborative law. Our team holds extensive training in these alternative methods. We guide clients toward cost-effective solutions for uncontested divorces.
However, collaborative methods are not suitable for every case. If your case involves severe conflict or domestic abuse, our attorneys will step in. We will fiercely protect your personal rights and your children’s well-being in court.
Our background in international law also prepares us for cross-border custody disputes, foreign adoptions, and jurisdiction questions.
